Registry: 1964 Ford Cortina
|
Ben E's 1964 Ford Cortina
|
Car was bought new in California, by a little old lady who became too elderly to drive shortly thereafter. The car was parked behind a nephew's shop, and was discovered there in the early 90's with 17k on the clock.
The guy that found the car began to (poorly) perform a V8 swap, and did not finish the car. It was later sold to a realtor from Hollywood, who had the car finished to a (slightly) higher standard.
I bought the car in 1996, and have been re-vamping the car ever since. It is now powered by a 375 hp 306 Ford V8 built by Jim Woods at Fordstrokers with Trickflow aluminum heads. And yes, it handles very well, before you ask.
