It went off at the end! $372 - still cheap enough. I suspect we'll see it again - or at least the head...

Gah! It needs five more cans, and would then be the first Cortina with a 440 Six Pack in it.

z: Rules!

Wish we could get "Bourbon Cola" in the :USA: :thumbdown:

That's "Woodstock" brand Bourbon & Cola in the bonus size can.
Check out the rather tanked looking couple to the right...

It's attracted some criticism in NZ: http://www.asa.co.nz/decisions/FULL/D0253.rtf

Anyhow, saw a couple of nice TE and TF Cortinas today but I'm not sure on the number of cylinders (6 or 8). The 2V really seems to be fading here. So many things are starting to stack up against it - availability/price, fuel costs, disposable income for necessary work on a 30-year old motor, the list goes on. When the current generation OHC gets popularised for transplants, it will (should, anyway) be a giant-killer.

Yeah we can get that stuff in a Carton of 24 for $50 on sale.........Thats over 10.5 litres of piss!!
I think you guys get booze cheaper than us though

Hey Addo OHC are good no doubt but they just dont look right do they?

Now dont look left yet, turbos are deceptional to the eyes.

I thought Mr Ghiller went back to a single turbo.

Seen the Golden Fleece speedway car in the flesh a couple of times. The vintage speed meets are too dear for attending IMO!

Possibly so, that really isn't too bad of a price, depending on % alcohol.

On a scale of one to ten on the "Bad-ass-o-meter", that is about a 25!

I am lusting (thou shalt not lust, thou shalt not covet) I am coveting!!

Hey yeah Sonny that might be the one, sounds familiar anyway. Im getting the car back this week now, so i gotta check that code. When i phoned the guy who had it he said its a 'different' colour, you either like it or you dont.
Walking up the driveway on a sunny day and bang......S hit its HUBBA BUBBA purple! Way cool bus i thought Cheers Steve
