Yes I have a soft spot for the cortys myself, I had a 68 2 doorfor my first licence car, , the poor old thing ,I gave it heaps, had 3 engines in it 2 gearboxes, a complete front end after an altercation with a culvert at high speed, and a spray can paint job of 11 cans of undercoat for which it attained the nic of the grey ghost , also we had a 66 auto 440 with a gt engine in it, nice simple easy cars to work on, I do miss the old cars.

This is the second time i've seen this episode (they also did one of the Capri). it's an interesting show. what i noticed this time around was the music sounded like it came straight from Get Smart.

There are lots of very interesting motor shows on Mate. I think I first saw the Cortina one well over a year ago and have managed to see it about 4 times now. After the show I usually jump in mine and go for a spin.

Yeah it was pretty good, I didn't really know much about them being a bit before my time and always having falcons around instead.

TV4ME has quite a few shows as well > scan through your on screen tv guide and mark the programs you like > I notice the Ford one hasn't been on lately.
