Summary
This charming 1965 Ford Cortina has been fully rebuilt as a tribute to the famous Lotus Cortina, featuring a 1. 6-litre twin-cam Lotus ‘L Block’ engine with extensive internal upgrades, a five-speed manual transmission, and a limited-slip differential. It has covered approximately 1,500 km since a complete engine, brake, and suspension overhaul, and rides on custom coilovers and widened OEM Lotus steel wheels.
