So despite not putting many updates on facebook, my 73 Cortina is still slowly progressing. All the running gear is now in the car (Essex 3.0 V6, 4-speed Scimitar box with overdrive and a 2-litre axle with 3.7:1 gears. It won't set the world alight but it should make a nice driver, and hopefully be at Melbourne in 2022.
Nice work !
I've stopped putting anything on Facebook, just results in , really helpful comments, from folk that have never held a spanner, never mind built a car....
