granada

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

£1,265, maybe slightly cheaper than a similar project over here, old Fords seem to have shot up in price recently.

It's a Mk1 not a Mk2, and with that grille I'd be surprised if it was a manual gearbox.
Currently over 35 years worth of fixing 35 boxes.
Hoping to reach 65 years worth of fixing 65 boxes.

Hmm, I wondered that too, but perhaps Johnny Foreigner was offered the manual alternative in the 2.6 litre Cologne-"powered" ( :lol: ) version of the Ghia?
The Essex V6 managed nicely with the obligatory automatic.

It still looks like a straight old thing, but wouldn't you think that someone would have washed it for the photo? OK, so washing cars is a concept unknown over there but even so... ;)
