i've gone mental and provided bigger reso pics of the upcoming cortina. still in the welding stages. still haven't decided if i should flare the wheel arches. more 'ganas' no?

you can see how the front suspension of the cortina is setup. double A-arms, tie-rod and anti roll bar link the spring and damper in check. since there's no strut tower, a strut bar would be useless...there's no place to put it too! maybe i could fabricate something to stiffen up the front a bit.

close-up of sheet metal tack-welded into place before (hopefully) seam-welding it nicely.

as you can see, the exhaust has to go. don't ask me why it's mushroomed at the tail pipe and why is it bent like that.

so ends another session of pics. i went shopping for seats and rims and i won't tell what i've in mind just yet. but it'll consist of 2nd hand semi-buckets and old school jap wheels.

stay tuned.
