Vehicle Detail
2-door, split seat, 4-speed on the tree. Very good condition. The car was purchased for my grandmother in the early sixties, and she gave it to me in 1982. I commuted to work in it from 1984-1985, then garaged it when it started having clutch issues. In 1999-2000 I sent it to a Lotus Cortina enthusiast who had restored several Cortinas and owned a Lotus and raced it regularly. He had the car in his shop for over a year and had the undercarriage, suspension, and fuel tank sandblasted and powder-coated; radiator and carburetor reconditioned; clutch rebuilt, along with the master and slave cylinders, and engine tuned up and running. Several thousand dollars were invested in the restoration. I drove it several times in 2000-2001, but it has not been driven now for close to eight years. However, it has been garaged for all but the last year. The last year it's been covered and in my driveway. I love this car, but she needs a good home with someone who will drive her and keep her spiffy. Can provide documentation of the work that was done on her in 2000. I'll also throw in various spare parts; the original user’s manual, and other little goodies. More pictures are available upon request.
