1967 Mk2 Ford Cortina 2 Door Estate 'A bespoke one off' For Sale

1967 Series 1 Mk2 Ford Cortina 2 door Estate

Ford never made a two door Cortina estate and this is the UK's only known example in existence.

From a Simon Coulson sketch in a national publication, to previous owner Mark Madden pursuing the concept with the assistance from well established fabricating guru Manny Galea, this truly bespoke and unique Ford Cortina was created. Fabrication imagery is available to view on - details above

The specification of the Cortina has changed since the August 2015 feature in Classic Ford Magazine.

Specification:

2. 0 ST170 block, forged dished pistons, T3 turbo, 'Retro Ford' alloy sump, Black Top head with Tomcat induction system, 'Longlife' 3" exhaust downpipe and wastegate link, full 3" system (no visible exit pipe at rear valance) Retro Power starter motor, in tank pump kit, alloy catch and breather tank with DTA management.

T5 5 speed gearbox, 'Retro Ford' Heavy Duty Paddle Clutch, 'GS Escorts' custom prop and Atlas axle with 3:09 LSD diff

Large header alloy radiator and intercooler complete with silicone hoses.

Capri 2. 8i adjustable coilovers with 200lb springs all rose jointed with rack and pinion conversion. Adjustable TCA's, 'Retro Ford' alloy anti roll bar brackets and polybushed. Rear GAZ Gold adjustable dampers with decambered Capri 2. 8i leaf springs complete with anti tramp bars and polybushed throughout.

Capri 2. 8i vented discs with AP four pot calipers with a rear disc conversion complete with Sierra Cosworth calipers.

Newly refurbished 7 x 13 Weller Motorsport Lotus Cortina Steel Rims with brand new (Nov '17) chrome centrecaps and Marshal 185/ 60/ 13 tyres.

All factory seat frames fully reupholstered in red leather with an original referenced pattern throughout and Karobes style front headrests. Red vinyl door cards and panels throughout. All interior metalwork (door tops, dash etc.) in Purbeck Grey (as exterior)

The paint finish is period Ford Purbeck Grey with a complimenting cream roof and hand painted single cream coachline. All badging is superb, refurbished front grille, headlamp surrounds and bonnet trim this year. Renewed headlamps and rear light clusters as brand new.

All chromework, bumpers and handles newly rechromed in November 2017.

Crucially, at no point has any of the original inner wing, front panel, slam panel structure been removed, cut or altered, for the reason that the option of a Crossflow or otherwise install can be carried out at a later date if desired.

Classic Ford Magazine said of the Cortina
"It really is astonishing how factory looking this Cortina is. A beautifully finished conversion that ticks all the 60's period boxes and we'd go as far as to say that Ford really should've built a two-door variant of the Mk2, with this example's stunningly clean lines providing all the proof you could ever need"

I trust it will come as no surprise to most that given what the Cortina has been subject to in terms of fabrication, the varying components within it and what it now represents, the 'financial costs incurred' since it's inception is WAY in excess of the asking price.

Naturally given the above, all I'd ask is that only genuine interested parties, without part exchanges and with funds enquire.
