Craigslist Cortina

You can find anything you want (I know, your mental stereos are already ahead of me here) on Craigslist it seems. Have you ever had a deep hankering for a Ford Cortina? Me neither, but they are interesting.

The seller of this car says his 1969 Cortina GT (!) has its original paint and interior. Being a vehicle of the 1960s, that's saying a lot.

This is a Mark II Cortina produced from 1966 through 1970. Ford cranked out over a million of them with engine choices (in the UK) from 1.2 to 1.6 liters displacement. They could be had in four door, two door and estate (that's a station wagon, pilgrim) versions. Brand new it listed in a US Ford dealer for $2,313.00. They were withdrawn from the US market in 1970.

You can buy this little jewel for $6,500.00 and it's located in Fairfax, Virginia. Let me know when you pick it up.
