Description / Overview:
Ford Cortinas with genuine GT specification and a proper documentation pack are hard to find in this condition. This one ticks the boxes. The GT compliance plate (CN29170, April 1970) is on the firewall, the body stampings are consistent and unmolested, and the original documentation wallet from selling dealer Frank Delandro comes with the car. The service booklet records a 3,000-mile dealer service dated November 1971 at 11,045 miles. That is genuine provenance and it adds real value to any classic buyer.
The deep green with black GT stripes and bonnet treatment looks strong and the paint is applied to a good standard throughout. Minilite-style alloy wheels and GT-spec instrumentation with full auxiliary gauges give it the right period stance. The 5-speed manual is an upgrade on the original 4-speed but a welcome one. Interior is clean in black with front buckets and rear bench in solid condition. The headliner shows some sagging toward the rear and there is loose aftermarket wiring visible beneath the dash; neither is a dealbreaker but both need addressing. The 4-cylinder Kent engine bay is clean and tidy with blue silicone HT leads and an aftermarket chrome mesh air filter.
At $4,700 current bid against an $18,000-$28,000 price guide there is significant runway here. Right buyer at the right price, this is outstanding value.
