I thought that all Pintos were hatchbacks, but I was wrong.

 

Good shout, I reckon.

Weren't all Pintos hatchbacks?

Don't think so - a few weren't. mostly earlier ones by the looks of things

I like the semi-shiter attitude of "car broken, just buy another car".

GT Cortina ? It certainly says so on the front wing.

Does come with pre-applied Cortina GT tax though !

 

Seriously though can anyone on here tell from the build info supplied ?

Those stripes look like they are off something else....And shouldn't it have a gauge pack?

I've been thinking and what the Rover 75 needs is another side stripe said no one ever. Well other than this guy.

Covering where someone has kindly keyed it perhaps? Looks like insulating tape has been used

Ok, Stuno, you listening? Mk2 Cortina data.

 

R rhd

N is 1600HC engine

A is floor change manual

A is 3.89/1 diff

trim code B980 refers to interior / seat colour and I don't have data on that right now

 

BA is Ford of Britain, Dagenham

 

Code 96 is factory model code for a 2-door GT. Yaaaaaay!!!!

 

GJ is a year/month date of manufacture code 1967 September

 

78910 is production car number.

 

Original paint code should be lower down the plate on the left.

 

Can post couple of Ford Mk2 i.d. reference sheets if Photobucket stops being a bastard tonight. Otherwise google it, easy to find these days.

 

So it's a factory 1600GT.

Suggest you alter that model-96 code to a 91 immediately and stick in a Lotus Twin Cam. Instant £25k. No one will know.

Jayzerz wept, what a hopeless heap!

 

 

The First picture is of a finished car and is NOT FOR SALE.

 

 

What you get for £2,000 (two thousand!) is this pile of rubbish:

This is a Great opportunity

 

 

And now comes the really sad part:

 

 

This was Designed to be built on a Sherpa Pick up chassis and comes with a good sold running example

 

 

The Sherpa is running and was parked in storage about 18 months ago when the mot ran out but will start and run with a freshly charged battery.

You will have to cut off or disassemble the cab and pick up body all of which may be sold on to recover some of the costs as these too are becoming rare in this condition.

The code BA is for Dagenham plant.
