Goatboy Posted 8 February, 2015 Share Posted 8 February, 2015 Don't forget to get all the DNA out of the boot. Bleach and hydrochloric acid will do the most thorough job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilippineSaint Posted 11 February, 2015 Share Posted 11 February, 2015 I had an old mark 3 Cortina and was getting some bits for it at Robbies Scapyard in Holbury when somebody turned up wanting to scrap another one, as Robbie charged to take cars off your hands he got most upset when I told him that I didnt want it as I had already found the parts I needed and he had to pay Robbie to take it off his hands.

Why would anyone pay to have their car scrapped when Silverlake pay you for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 11 February, 2015 Share Posted 11 February, 2015 I had an old mark 3 Cortina ... Me too and that particular Dagenham Dustbin was my first car actually - a 1974 1.6 'Delux' reg no ROJ 609M* It was rubbish truth be told but I'd give anything to have it back, although by now I suspect it would be little more than a pile of ferrous oxide blowing in the wind. * Why is it I can remember the registration number of a car I had 35 years ago, but can't for the life of me recall the number of the mobile phone that's in my pocket today!

CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 My schoolboy dreams revolved around a 2000E, never a Porsche or Ferrari. I so know what you mean - there was something about Fords make then that made other competing mass market cars seem horribly dated and undesirable. How I desired the 2000E's rev counter, fabric covered seats and vinyl roof. The closest I got to this icon of 70's luxury and sophistication was fitting a set of (very) used 'rostyle' wheels to my bog standard 1.6 - which is really not the same thing. Do you remember the final Cortina Ford ever made - the Mk 'V' Cortina 'Crusader' ? I would have - and might still - sell my soul to have one of those ...
