I've been on this forum for a while but never posted anything so here goes.
I have 2 Cortinas, a 1977 TE Ghia 6cyl 4.1lt colour is Blue Steel and a 1980 TE GL 4.1lt colour Marigold. I've had the blue one since about sep 04 and the marigold one since 01/10/09 which i swapped a festiva for. I started doing work on the blue TE but didn't have the stuff i needed to complete it so now its sitting under my carport rust with portions of it back to bare metal. The marigold TE has not long run out of rego but needs a new lower left control arm which i have but buggered the rubber on the ball joint so now i need a new ball joint for that. Here's a few pics.

Hey mate, good on you for making your first post! And a new thread... As you'll know from the forum photos rate high so you nailed it!
Love Cortinas- power to weight ratio is insane and with a hot crossflow you'll blow a lot of V8s away too! What are your plans for the cars? |

I want to get both resprayed and was planning on doing it myself. The blue one need some work on the roof and it doesn't start atm but does turn over. I want to get the yellow corty on the road again but with a baby on the way and due in august it'll prove difficult to do. If it comes down to it I'll sell one of them which i hope i don't have to.
