Two Cortina donors found!!

There is a slight snag though.....

They are in the car park at Dinard airport in Brittany (near St. Malo).

Flew out there last Friday, and in the car park is a very rough looking, Jersey registered Cortina which has obviously not moved for a long time. Also a british registered two door which looked a lot better, but had at least one flat tyre.

Didn't have any tools with me otherwise I might be selling some front hubs on ebay now

I was back at Dinard airport a couple of weeks ago and at least one of the cortinas is still there. My wife didn't seem keen to look around the car park for the other one though....

I went to Kos last summer and their were loads of old cortinas in what looked like scrapyards up in the hills and a few that i saw left to rust on wasteland, i was tempted to buy a cheap socket set and go pillaging, would of probably made a packet selling them on ebay!

Saw a couple on Lesvos in September and one on Corfu in May. Excess baggage may be expensive though
