1963
Ford Lotus Cortina MkI was launched in 1963 as part of Ford's
plan to inject some sporting spirit into the marque. The job of
revamping Ford Cortina was given to Colin Chapman who managed
to create a successful racer. For power unit, he used Lotus Elan's
1.6 litre twin cam Ford-based engine and the suspension was uprated.
The homologation run of 1,000 followed in order to qualify for
Group 2 racing. This example was subject to a full restoration
that finshed in 1999. It is described as being in "very good"
condition overall, chassis "excellent" and engine "100%".
It is a desirable Mk1 which can be raced in a number of historic
motor sport events.
