• 1974 1300 MKIII - Ford Cortina 8 Apr 2019 (Forum)
  in the Cortina line. I have been hearing that the gearbox is a handful and difficult to get fixed.  But being a Ford, i'm thinking parts will be easy to come by. Any help/ opinions would be appreciated. Thanks,  Paul.

• Any - The slow decline of interesting Fords 15 Jul 2024 (Forum)
  , possibly slightly more interesting but what is it? Then the  Ford Ranger, of limited interest and ability. Is there anything else? I remember so many interesting and fantastically sought after models, the Capri 2 litre & 3 litre, Escort Mexico, RS 2000, etc, Lotus Cortina,  Cortina 2.3

• Ford - Goodbye Ghia! 14 Feb 2010 (Forum)
  dashing Granadas, Mk1 Fiestas and Mk 4 Cortinas wearing the badge with pride back in the 1970s - the Ford price lists will seem a bit empty without them, or is it just me?
