Budgie - that first pic - is it a Crayford Lotus Cortina or a Lotus Crayford Cortina or a Crayford Cortina Lotus or......................something else? Was it available to buy like that from new?
Only asking as I used to have a Mk 2 soft top in a previous life - was great, if a little wet inside/tail happy in the wet/rusty as Bananarama!..........

Hey Phil, how's it hangin son :thumbright:


The correct title for a MK2 ( Lotus ) Cortina is = Cortina Lotus, so your last stab at it is the correct one = Crayford Cortina Lotus. You bought your new car and took it to crayford for the surgery, Ford where OK with the conversion.

The guy who restored that one has gone way OTT with it, a total trailer queen :banghead: :roll:


The Crayford's never really done it for me, vert's where for possers ;) :lol:

Very cool Ade, you lucky sweetcheeks :o

The Eytie strokers were so much quicker than the Japseyes, anywhere between 6 to 12 horses, a giddy amount of power when you is barely out of puberty :lol:

After I flogged the Fizzer I managed to bag a Fantic Motor chopper moped, see if I can find a pic :D
