looks cheap, and

Looks like you could spend 10 times the purchase price fixing the bugger.
I am sure there is a Cortina garaged for the last ten years out there somewhere.
P.S. How do you insert a hyperlink?

I think one of these would be very do-able, the front struts bolt on and it would not be rocket science to make up an upright to fit an upper
wishbone, rear end is vaguely sierraesque, strong engine, very small gearbox, and a small but very thick rad.

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I found one local to me when looking for a donor, belonges to a neighbour who as thinking of getting it road worth again.
He had been thinking this for 15 years and will probebly go on thinking it for another 15. I gave up and left him to it.

shes worth it all. 
by the way, if anyone is thinking of buying the 4x4, remember the LSD has gone. no point lashing a fellow builder.

Is it a GLS or a XR btw?!
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.
