LOTUS FORD CORTINA 1969 MKII

Anchor Blue with Silver Flash 1969 Lotus Cortina MK2. If you are looking for a concourse car then this is it! The car is totally original apart from the engine being bored out 60thou with leda front suspension and spax on the rear. Also comes with original reg number prefixed VAL which may be of some interest and has a value but I doubt very much the buyer of this car would take it off as it is part of the history of the car.
This car has undergone an extensive restoration by the previous owner, who spent 5 years restoring this car and making it what it is today with a photographic record of the rebuild with 90+ images and every bill and receipt. Hundreds of hours have gone into this car which I doubt you could ever put a price on.When the previous owner purchased the car it was White but during the restoration it was uncovered that the car was originally Blue, this has been confirmed by the DVLA who have supplied copies of the previous logbooks.When restoring this car if any part showed corrosion or rust, it was removed with a new panel or part put in its place. Receipts show that £2,500 was spent on panels alone, a list of the panels replaced includes Rear Valance, Right Hand A Post, Right Hand Hinge Pillar, Front Valance, RH Headlamp Panel, LH Headlamp Panel, RH Rib, LH Rib, 2 x Headlamp Bowls, RH Inner Wing Repair, LH Inner Wing Repair, RH Reinforcement, LH Reinforcement, Slam Panel, Closing Panel, LH A Post, LH Hinge Pillar, Pressings x 2, LH Outer Sill, LH Rear Lower Corner, RH Outer Wheelhouse, LH Outer Wheelhouse, Spare Wheel Well, LH Arch Repair, RH Inner Sill, RH Jacking Point, Cortina Drip Rail, RH Outer Sill, RH Wheel Arch Repair, LH Drip Rail, LH Inner Wheelhouse, Tool Well, RH Rear Lower Corner, Petrol Tank replaced.A further £1900 was spent on the engine rebuild.
