Ford Lotus Cortina Mk. I FIA
There are few road and racing cars more instantly recognised with its violent green arrow pointing it's way so clearly to success. Using Ford's eponymous two-door saloon and Colin Chapman's indomitable reputation for the twin-cam engine, the marriage was made in heaven. Chapman commissioned Harry Mundy, he of Coventry Climax fame to come up with a twin-cam version of Ford’s Kent engine. Keith Duckworth from Cosworth tuned the motor and the 1.6 litre unit was born. Together with the same close-ratio gearbox as the Elan, some drastically altered suspension and lightweight alloy panels used for doors, bonnet and boot, weight began to be shed and lap times dropped. The interior received un updated dash featuring the necessary dials, uprated seating and a wood-rimmed steering wheel. A year after this example was produced, the ally body panels made way for steel ones. Again, making this one all the more collectable. The Cortina Lotus had by this time earned an impressive competition reputation. Motor Sport greats such as Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart, Vic Elford, Jack Sears, Sir John Whitmore, and Jacky Ickx all raced them and helped the car gain the iconic status it has today. Indeed I think wordsmith, Paul Chudecki, summed up one of this car’s most famous former drivers when writing for Magneto magazine, Rex Woodgate, when he competed both at the Nürburgring and Brands Hatch, describing him as “Former race mechanic to an up-and-coming Stirling Moss, ex-HWM and Vanwall race mechanic, builder of Aston Martin’s sports-racing cars, manager of the Elisha Walker DBR2 team and the face of Aston Martin in North America for two decades, [as well as] renowned Aston race-preparation specialist.
