    I have similar but Taunus -82, and -76 two barrel 302 in it(for now, we have engine power/car weight restrictions when swapping engines). Just passed MOT, trailered it there , waiting for summer, not going to drive it in winter here in Finland with all that salt on the roads. You have really made yours with good taste.

    Nobody ever mentions why there's no strut towers in the engine bay of these cars.. I know because I owned 5 mk5's and one Mk4 Corrina.. they got double wishbone from suspension.. allows for a lot more engine bay room.. not like the Ford escorts with the strut setup..
    I fkn loved those 2.0L cortinas back in the day.. even the wagons were sick, you could literally just pop a burnout at the lights and smoke would instantly pour out the rear wheel arch as they were a 4 speed so the gears were longer giving the first gear a good burnout speed... Hook 2nd gear and you're smoking out an entire street 🤣

    This brings back memories of my TE Cortina. Mine was origionally a gold colour and then I painted it Sparkling Burgundy (EL GT Colour), running a 250 XFlow with Alloy Head, Cam and a little head work and in the end it was running a Gas Research setup and required a gas tank behind me due to the terrible fuel consumption. Upgraded brakes to hoppers stoppers setup. standard brakes were not the best. Unfortunatly I not longer have the car, the rust got to it, but I did save part of the car. I turned the front into a carbbq, which I ended up giving to a friend as I didn't use it :( I currently have a TD Cortina which Iam trying to restore, but like you guys have said parts are hard to find and rust is an issue. Currently looking for body panels for it, rear end section.

    Owned 2 TE's. A 2 litre manual & a 4.1 also manual. That 4.1 was worked to around 210 rw hp & HUGE flat torque curve. With a 3.5 9in diff & blueprinted borg warner 35 4 speed w custom ratios. Tricked out suspension. Back in the late 80's & early 90's. It was a real weapon. 14 sec 1/4 which is nothing now but sure it was due to me. & could have done mid 13's with more launch skill and better hook up in the rear.These weigh near 1/2 a ton less than a falcon barra.
