Ford Cortina Mk2 Lotus, Anchor Blue
<p>Ford Cortina Mk2 Twin Cam (Lotus) Anchor Blue<br>The Mk2 Cortina was heavier and wider than the Mk1 but a Lotus version was developed and used successfully in competition. The Mk2, however, was built<br>entirely in house by Ford who fitted engines and other components supplied by Lotus who were at this time moving from Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, to Hethel,<br>Norfolk. It was launched in 1967 as the Ford Cortina-Lotus (rather than Lotus -Cortina) and in 1968 was renamed the Cortina Twin Cam to bring it into line<br>with the Escort Twin Cam, which used the same Lotus engine. Production ceased in July 1970 by which time 4032 examples had been built</p>
