Build story
Hi.
this is my 1976 NZ built mk3 ford cortina 1.3 4 cylinder
the aussies did them with straight 6 and i all ways wanted one but hard to find in New Zealand and if you can ..way out of my price range...
so i found the car on its way to the scrap yard and saved it.....to build my self a 6 clyinder mk3.
this is the 1st time ive ever tackled a build like this...and is so far 100% built by me in my garage with mostly what I have at hand.
I bought a 1" dimple die and an 8" bead roller .
there is over 6 moths of rust work before I started modify it..
thanks for looking
