Beschreibung
The car was purchased by the current owner in 1988, under the condition that he would race it. He has done so over the years and has consistently maintained it mechanically – see below for details.
130 hp, weighs 500 kg – that’s just 4 kg per horsepower!
100% original as a race car with Brooklands screen, etc. (except for electronic ignition and RPM sensor).
One owner since 1987 – continuously renovated technically for racing… now being sold due to the driver's age.
Engine – original Ford Cortina 1500 cc, bored to 1595 cc
Fully rebuilt in 2023: new camshaft, piston rings, connecting rods, radiator, etc. Tuned on a rolling road to 130 hp.
Head: “full race” spec with high-lift rockers, new camshaft, twin Weber 45s
Dry sump, stainless steel exhaust system
Gearbox: 4-speed, race-optimized
Rear axle: with limited-slip differential, suspension and dampers fully rebuilt in 2024
New battery: installed in 2025
Tyres: AVON ZZR, 215/55 R13 on magnesium wheels
Includes an extra set of wheels and tyres
Plenty of spare parts included.

Auktionsinfo
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
- Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
- When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
- If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
- If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
- Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
- For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
