Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1966 Ford Cortina Lotus Mk 1 is a race-prepped classic, boasting a Lotus inline-four engine with Weber carburetors and a four-speed manual gearbox. Sold for $47,600 USD, it features a roll cage, Panasport wheels, and a trunk-mounted fuel cell, though it's curiously titled as a 1967 model.
Condition
6
The car is described as a race car with features like a roll cage, bucket seats, racing mirrors, Panasport wheels, Hoosier tires, and a trunk-mounted fuel cell and battery. It's finished in Ermine White with Sherwood Green and has Smiths instrumentation. Given that it's a race car, some wear and tear would be expected, but the description does not indicate significant cosmetic or mechanical issues. The listing mentions the car is titled as a 1967, adding some confusion around the actual year.
