not sure Ultpanzi, might need Ads to supply something stronger than a fence picket. Maybe add some Ormsby carbon fibre to it to strengthen it

That was my first ever car, Mk 3 Cortina 1600. Cragar rims, Italian made double barrel Weber, Coby exhaust system, extractors, lumpy cam, Pioneer CD player and furry black interior. Finished in a beautiful shade of primer grey (also known as "police magnet" grey)Originally Posted by wokkaboy

classic Barge, thats what I'm assuming Ian (TC1600) used to drive. Did it go alright Barge or was it a dog to drive ?
The Australian version had a 2 litre, and a 200 and 250 cubic inch straight 6

When I first bought it (before I started doing it up) it was poo metallic brown and used to use 4 litres of oil for every 100 kms.
Bought a new motor, did it up and it was a good bus, when you're 16 years old just having a car of your own is a bonus. For only a 1600 she used to wind up to 170km flat out, not bad really.
classic Barge, thats not bad at all 170 clicks for 80% of an orange juice carton !

Barge you would have heard the saying or seen the sticker on a V8 car saying "only milk and orange juice come in 2 litres" haha

That's right , I forgot I put a racing steering wheel in it too (of course), the factory ones, if I remember correctly were about the same diameter as the wheel off the Love Boat.
Finally saved up enough money for a tidy car, sold it to some young fullas round the corner and they wrote it off within two weeks, could handle the power:-)
