not sure where it was taken, and it may be a DIY conversion to 3.3 but its an odd choice for a swap

Thx Markymat3 and NDTman.

The Mk3 next to it is interesting too - is that Modena? And can't decide if it's a GXL or a 2000E - modena is late 73 early 2000E era but have never seen one.

Any info on the Peppermint green Mk4 Ghia NDT??
There was one here locally for a few years a long time ago - it really stood out being a factory-spec Cortina Ghia in that colour.

Hi, the MK3 next to it is a 2000E in modena green, its a very late car as it doesn't have the FORD letters on the bonnet.

Sorry no info on NDT.
