Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1965 Ford-Lotus Cortina, chassis BA74EU59035, boasts a rich racing history, having been driven by legends like Sir Jackie Stewart and Jacky Ickx. Formerly part of the Alan Mann Racing team, it requires restoration to its original red/gold livery and factory-correct seats after being off the road since the 1970s, presenting a unique opportunity for collectors.
Condition
6
The car is described as being in partially restored condition, off the road since the 1970s. The body shell incorporates left-hand drive Cortina panels and new panels elsewhere, which is not uncommon for a race car. The car is described as 90% restored. The engine is said to have been rebuilt, but a precautionary check is recommended. The seats are not factory-correct. Therefore, it's not pristine, outstanding, excellent, or very good. Considering the car's history, partially restored state, and need for further work, a 'Good' rating is assigned.
