1961. Stored and stood in garage for 13 years. Engine and gearbox working ok brakes need attention (not seized). Minimal welding required. Mostly original paint work. The condition of this car is in keeping with its age. In need of TLC. Minimal work needed to make road worthy. Otherwise a sound base for a nice project.

Morris Minor 1000

How about that Cortina you’ve always promised yourself ? 
 

2.0 for safer overtaking 

That looks very expensive for a car that a) sounds like it doesn’t run and b) looks likely to be rather rusty in lots of key places.

The beige Mk4 posted more recently looks a much better bet, although I’d still want to know what’s underneath all that brown paint on the NS lower body before proceeding further. The boot floor is nice and clean though, always a good sign.

Performance wasn't the car's strong suit, since the EXP weighed about 200 lb (90.7 kg) more than the contemporary Escort but carried the same small 1.6 L CVH engine rated at 70 hp (52 kW) and a standard 4-speed MTX-I manual transaxle.

Ford expected to build and sell 200,000 EXPs and 70,000 LN7s in the 1982 model year, with approximately half that number making production.

Competing against the similarly configured Honda CR-X,

An interesting and rare model for sure, but not surprising really that buyers would rather choose to have a CRX...

Wow, utterly obscure and another example of "how the hell did this end up here (and survive for so long)"?

Yes indeed, I will be most interested to see how much that Beige one sells for when the auction ends in 5 days, I wonder if the winning bidder will try eating their dinner off  of that boot floor?

Somewhat optimistically priced DeVille Concourse.

 

HOWEVER, not only does it look clean, it's probably also the only Northstar in the UK where someones actually bothered to do the headstuds on. In case you wonder why it's such a big deal:

Step 1 - drop engine
