TD Cortina Project
« on: January 16, 2011, 07:40:48 PM »


Well I have a big job in front of me with this half rubbed back TD Cortina. I have been searching for another one for quite a while and was lucky enough to find this one.

The plan is for a full restoration with an eventual V8 conversion. Though this is subject to finances at the end of the restoration.

Any help or encouragement would be needed and appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg.

Hey Thanks, I'm sure I'll need plenty of bits and advice along the way. Any info on V8 conversion would be great.
She is going into the metal shop soon to have the rust cut out, then into my paint shop.
