Just wondering and trying to keep the chat alive in here, if anyone's come across any TD Cortina Summertime pack cars?
From what I understand they had blue or green cobra style paint outs, white interior with body coded cloth inserts and were available in 4 & 6cyl. Possibly around 1000 made. Any info out there? ![]() ![]() This blue one I found on a rural property many years ago, hence the low res phone pic. There was no answer at the door so I didn't go for a closer look as I was in shotgun country ![]() Its since disappeared... ![]()

Cant help with the summertime pack question but fwiw was on hoilday a few weeks back and took a tiki tour inclusive of the NZ transport museum in Wanaka,the amount of old English stuff in there was staggering to be fair,some beautiful Escorts but sadly didnt take pics or at least any decent ones.

I remember a blue one (mainly white - blue trim), with the big 4.1 on the front guards around here (Rockhampton), back in the late 70's - early 80's, probably land fill somewhere now.
Never seen the green ones, or a 2.0, I thought they were all 4.1's, so thanks for the photo and the info.

I think the old grounds man of my primary school had a Blue one with 2.0L and he resided next door to a mate who lived one street from the school, so I only ever seen it had his home like, I don't think he took a shine to me because I would ride my bike out of the school grounds, the new idiot fascist Principle made such a rule and this old dude shot after me and grabbed the back wheel as I was flat out going for it, had no rear guard but for the busted off bit that cut his hand, the stupid idiot and I got 6 cuts for that fool.
![]() I am quite sure his TD Cortina was just like that no big 2.0L tho I believe but just a normal size 2.0L badge I think. Same colour code at the boot I am sure of that. but I never looked inside of it. |
