Mileage 90,300 Engine 1500 Rego S190 CGJ Its arrived back at Collectable Classics. Introduced in April 1963, the Cortina GT was soon selling in huge numbers and few cars could match its 95mph top speed or willing acceleration at such an affordable price.  Updated in line with Mark 1 Cortina production, a new facia was adopted for 1964, followed by the new ‘Aeroflow’ ventilation system in 1965, along with radius-arms added to the rear suspension.  Cortina GTs were homologated by Ford for rallying and notched up numerous wins on the international stage in the mid-1960s while the potent Lotus version was developed for circuit racing, the legendary Jim Clark winning the 1964 British Saloon Car Championship and Sir John Whitmore the European Touring Car Championship the following year.  The Cortina GT enjoyed a similar level of success here in Australia, particular on the legendary Mount Panorama circuit, dominating the Armstrong 500 in 1963-1965.  Billed as “The world’s most winning car in motor sport” in local advertising, the Cortina GT remains one of the most collectible cars to wear the Blue Oval badge.   This particular GT has benefited from an older restoration that has stood the test of time. Very tidy in the body, trim and motor just loves to rev. Comes with a few extra's such as period black rims,  period spot lights, chrome head light protectors, bullet mirrors and the rear louver is a nice touch. This is rare opportunity to buy a piece of Ford motoring history. Contact Ben Finnis  - 0411 744 190 or Brenton Rogers 0418 920 920 to secure this classic. -Finance available -Door to door transport available -All cars inspected by our fully trained mechanics.       Over 50 x Classics in stock and more arriving daily .
