TTU 722H - 1970 Ford Cortina GT Mk2 Series 2 in green - 1598cc - an incredible opportunity to purchase an iconic staple of British motoring history - a Ford Cortina. This GT Mk2 being first registered in January 1970, benefits from a recent light restoration with around five thousand pounds being spent on it in the last few years. A fully useable and drive-able classic, this Cortina comes with all chrome work present, original black interior and even a period racing Cortina steering wheel. Drives exactly as it should, and stops in the same manner. The owner notes it is in honest condition, being very solid and requiring no welding work - but does suffer the usual light rust bubbles and blemishes to the bodywork here and there. Tyres have recently been upgraded at some cost to reconditioned Rostyles and the Goodyear tyres have travelled less than 100 miles. Mechanically good, the engine has recently had a reconditioned fuel pump fitted. The interior whilst original, could do with some sprucing with some stitching having come undone, and the dashboard does suffer some cracking. The bonnet catch also requires replacement. Otherwise this is a well loved and use-able icon of British motoring, which still turns heads wherever it travels. V5C present. Collection from a Bristol location (not our saleroom) and national delivery can be arranged.
