Description
The Ford Cortina was built by Ford UK in Essex between 1962 and 1982, during which time it evolved from the Mk1 to the Mk V in various guises, power and capacity. The Cortina was the most popular UK car throughout the 1970s and 1970 saw the launch of the Mk III which continued in production until 1976. During the lifetime of the Cortina, as well as its role as a popular family car, it was also adapted for the race and rally sport and for its latest model outing, we have chosen to decorate it as raced by celebrity radio DJ and TV presenter, Noel Edmonds.
With the personalised registration plate WILLMENT of co-driver John Willment, the car is decorated in two-tone red and white with black roof and a black band running along the sides. The interior is also black. Racing as No. 19, printed on the bonnet and front doors, additional graphics include the Motorcraft sponsorship details on the bonnet, the sides of the front doors and across the windscreen sun visor. Finally, the drivers' names 'John Willment racing with Noel Edmonds' with the blue and white Ford logo are printed in black along the length of the car on each side.
