Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1971 MkIII Cortina 1600, originally from South Africa, is a UK-registered restoration project. It features a solid bodyshell (with some welding completed) and a running engine, but needs a windscreen and finishing touches, making it ideal for a hands-on enthusiast.

Condition 

5

The car is listed as a restoration project, indicating it requires work to be completed. While the body shell is believed to be solid with some welding done, a front windscreen is needed. The car starts and runs, and the engine and gearbox are reported to be good, but it needs an owner to finish the restoration. The odometer reading is not warranted. There are some MOT certificates and an invoice for a new carburetor, but overall, the car needs reconditioning.

This MkIII Cortina 1600 was originally sold and registered in South Africa in 1971, but was brought to the UK in 2017 and registered here during the March of that year.

It's a restoration project, but the vendor believes the bodyshell is solid with most of the important welding work done including the A‑pillars, scuttle and rear quarter.

A front windscreen is required.

The car apparently starts and runs well, and the engine and gearbox are reported to be good.

The car requires an owner who will be able to finish it off.

The odometer shows the 'mileage' as 59,426km, although this isn't warranted.

The paperwork folder contains the V5C, which shows two previous registered keepers since the car has been in the UK.

There are also MoT certificates from 2017 and 2018 plus a single invoice for a new Weber 32/36 DGV 5A carburettor in 2017, for which there's also an exploded diagram and settings sheet.
