Well, the Cortina left the shop yesterday, but not before one heck of a test drive. I can tell ya, that car makes an excellent drifter! LOL Before she left, I managed to take some good shots. Not much on the exterior (that can be found anywhere), But I got your some very detailed engine bay shots, as well as ride height (front and rear), and full dash and interior shots. If you PM me your regular e-mail address, I'll get them to you.   Steve

Thanks Irish666. I sent you a PM the other day but I'm not sure if you got it or not.

This was certainly the only colour scheme available to the public, and works cars were finished in this scheme too. Once you bought your Lotus Cortina, however, there was nothing to stop you having it resprayed in any scheme you chose.

Cheers,

Chris.

Do you mean that this was the only colour scheme as sold to the public?  I think in the 65 racing season there may have also been one that was red with gold flashes, and possibly one other colour scheme. However white with green is my favourite.
