Pete J. Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Boy Harry, I think you got me on this one. That is a face I can't forget, but can't remember what it is. I've even got the country of origin but that is not helping. Good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemodeler Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I knew it looked like a Ford Corsair, just couldn't come up with exact year or model. I remember Matchbox having one similar to this when I was a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even got the country of origin but that is not helping. Good choice. Boy was I way off!! I wasn't even on the right continent. That front end made me think of an older Mazda and the mirrors looked very Japanese. Good one Harry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunajammer Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 1989? Boy, is that about 20-years behind the times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Kucaba Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I knew that. I just didn't want to show off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunc Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 the wheels immediately made me think Ford, right hand drive made me think British, Cortina was my next link but it didn't match so I looked for variants and came across the Corsair.

CorvairJim Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I had the English Ford part, but I didn't have the Corsair part. BTW, Not to nit-pick, but my research shows it to be a '69 Ford CONSUL Corsair 2000E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I knew this one straight away when I saw it, but couldn't remember the year. Well luckily my guess was close enough and finally I got one of these right. Can't wait for the next one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjordan2 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) I had the English Ford part, but I didn't have the Corsair part. BTW, Not to nit-pick, but my research shows it to be a '69 Ford CONSUL Corsair 2000E.I think the Consul part was dropped when the V4 and 2000E designation came about.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_CorsairEDIT: It appears that's the deal. The website www.fordconsulcorsair.co.uk/ states the following:Welcome to my Ford Consul Corsair website!This is a website dedicated to the inline, 1498cc models known as the 'Consul Corsair' which were produced from the summer of 1963 until October 1965. It does not cover the V4 models which were introduced from October 1965 and badged simply as the "Ford Corsair."

dimaxion Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I only Knew the English origin , or at the least Ford of Europe from the Wheels . England from the RHD . Due to FoMoCo wheels , not Japanese . Thanx Sincerely Harry .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
