We are located in Ballarat, Victoria, Australia.

We have been driving, maintaining, modifying and trading in Cortina Mk1s for over 25 years. We travel some distance to find them too. So if you know of one sitting in a yard or paddock that may be going to meet its end in a scrap yard please contact us...

1963 2 door Interior
Interior is factory style. New carpet fitted, hoodlining has been replaced along with dash top. New front and rear seat trim has been fitted also. When we got the car it was fitted with red cloth front seats and what they sometimes call 'turtle shell' cloth rear. We have decided not to go with that style and will keep with palomino type trim similar to the door trims. Door linings or 'cards' were two tone beige or palomino. New seat belts have been fitted.

Fitted out of site into the glove box is a cd, mp3 player along with 12 volt power outlets. Correct early fan heater has been fitted. These early heaters are getting very hard to find these days.

Custom floor console has been made to suit GT remote shift and floor mounted handbrake.
