Looked into it a bit more the ones Supercheap etc sell is TE, not TC

So you might be in trouble.

Tried Rare Spares?? Gumtree??

I have had success lately finding some hard to get parts through Facebook car pages. You can place wanted adds and people may have something laying around their shed.

You would need to organise the freight yourself, and get the eBay site to deliver to them. It wont be cheap

or just search for Mk III Cortina rather than TC

good luck

Shouldn't be too hard to get. Try TD Cortina as well, same thing... Give the guys at fordcortina.com a yell too.
