1967 Cortina Deluxe, 1600GT, Converted by Crayford For Sale

A very rare and exciting opportunity to own a car from the history books from a famous automotive brand and indeed twinned illustrious engineering coach work firm.

This car has been in my family for over 25 years and is an absolute beauty in it's perfect condition.
The Convertable Crayford has been off the road for nearly 18 years now and as such makes a fantastic restoration project.

This is a truly rare piece of Ford history. The 1969 Mark 2 Cortina Deluxe, sold to Crayford for conversion and sold to the public in 1969. We have owned the car since 1989 and it has 5 former keepers.
V5C and some service history available, some Crayford club papers too.

It has the renowned GT box and engine running a Webber carb with a standard 4 branch manifold. The engine turns and has good compression and fires on easy start spray. No leaks can be found and the cooling system appears complete and intact.
The running gear is impeccable and retains all original parts to include the geared up GT final drive.

The braking system had siezed to aid moving the master cylinder has been removed. A replacement is found in the boot. New brake lines are already ran in the car along worth flexi hoses.

There is factory paint in most places with the odd patch of touch in primer but it is graceful and very original. The doors gaps are excellent as are all the shit lines of the boot and indeed bonnet.

All trims, lights and indeed interior is in place and the car retains all of its original fittings both outside and in.

The hood is function and rip free and clean as is the rear window and indeed the hood frame. It has faded from the sun over time, but with a deep clean it will come up very nice. It retains its original tourneu cover and again is in good order.

These cars are very very rare indeed. With a value of around £30k when completed and projects hard to come by.

Works had began to slowly restore the car but they were stopped due to ill health, having to sell the car for the same reasons.

The originality of this car is staggering, combined with its correct vin tags and serial number confirming its Crayford heritage and indeed it's fine details such as the Crayford only window winders and limited Crayford badging.

It's a shame but has become necessary to sell this on to someone who will give it the future it deserves
