Welcome to the second episode where we strip down the MK1 Cortina and Czech out if it's as solid as we hoped, in readiness for the big power Duratec.

Yes dropping lucky on this one

[@antmk2dreaming614]

you mentioned that you are making up a kit to change left to right hand drive on the cortina, any chance you could also look into the same for mk1 and 2 escorts?

My son is in the middle of converting his Mk2 Escort to RHD but guessing you guys will do a quicker job than my boy 🤣, looking forward to the progress on the Cortina 👍🏻😎

Mk2 are a bit more work to do than a cortina ..

Can't wait to seeing this finished, Dave! I take it you'll be fitting the A-frame Lotus Cortina boot & quarter brace bars to stop the rear sagging? Cheers. Leigh.
