I spent most of my pre married youth mucking around with Cortinas.
1st one I bought cheap was a TE 4.1 auto GL, Blue Steel.
a trip to the Gold Coast.

Being a spray painter, I wanted a red one, so I repainted the blue one inside and out Monza Red, my old man was a mechanic and was very anti modding cars, keep em stock, would have looked a bit better with a set of mags
Scored the factory rear spoiler at the local wreckers, went into a lot of detail with the paint job, note the grill and the badge work - 4.1GS on the rear.
My older Brother bought from new, Pine & Lime 4.1 Manual, with Factory air, he was trading it for an 3.3lt 5 speed X pack, I brought off him for the trade in cost, one owner car. Kept this car until my wife fell pregnant with our 3rd child, too small had to go, poorly staged pics of this car at Bathurst on our road trip to the snowy mountains on our honeymoon. Eventually repainted the car again in the original colour.
