Hi All,

I'm looking for my DREAM car which is a 1972-74 Ford Cortina TC XLE with the twin round headlights. I'm located in Melb/Vic and obviously it would be easier for me to find a car located in my state, though IF your not in Vic then please keep on reading. I would like to find a TC XLE in 'good' too reasonable condition, preferably one that's close to original factory specs as possible i.e. still has the 250ci 4.1L Pre Crossflow motor and 13inch steel wheels with factory 3-speed auto or 4-speed manual.

Ideally I'd be interested in arranging a swap/trade/barter arrangement. I currently own a very good condition factory original, Silver Grey 1981 Cortina TF Ghia S/wagon with 4.1L alloy head cross flow, 3-speed auto, aircon, power-steering, polished factory Globe alloy mag wheels, roof rack, velour interior and a new Mp3/CD 4-speaker system. It has rego and drives very well, I've owned this car for 15yrs and its been lovingly taken care of during that time with a full history of all work done during the past 15yrs. Since my wife doesn't want me to have any more 'toys' the only way I can gain my dream car the Cortina TC XLE is to organize a trade/swap or even if necessary having to sell my TF Ghia S/wagon. Though IF I cannot find a suitable TC XLE then obviously I'll keep my car. It won't be easy to part with my TF Ghia S/wagon BUT I'm keen to find a good condition and close to original as possible Cortina TC XLE.

Whatever happens it's obviously something we'll have to work out, understandably I can't swap my car for any old wreck and of course you’ll want to gain a good and fair deal. So IF you have a TC XLE and would like it to go to a good home then please don't hesitate to contact me. Also should you know of a Cortina TC XLE located in Vic then please contact me as well.

Finally thanks for taking the time to view my post, this offer will stand for weeks, months and maybe even years until I find a suitable TC XLE, so take your time to consider my offer carefully and don't hesitate to contact me even if it's quite a long period of time that this 'post' has been here. Once again IF you have a Cortina TC XLE 1972-74 it doesn't need to be in 'prefect' condition though I would prefer it to be complete, running, drive-able and close to factory specs as possible please. Doesn't need to have rego or a RWC because I plan to restore the car to factory original condition regardless. Preferably just a 'good to reasonable' condition car that may require work BUT isn't too far rotted away to be saved.

Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon or in the future, I Promise to reply to your email or comment if I'm able to so please contact me if your interested.

Regards,

Matt.
