Description

There was a time when every New Zealander either owned a Ford Cortina or had a parent, sister, brother, grandparent or friend who did. While we can't claim these hugely popular cars as our own, the Cortina's place in New Zealand motoring history makes it something of a Kiwi cultural icon. This book celebrates the Cortina in many guises, from survivor cars to pristine originals, historic racers to thoughtfully modified examples. While cars' stories differ hugely, the Cortinas featured here have one thing in common – they are cherished by the people who are proud to own and drive them.
