Looks like it was built with a 1500 engine, or was this the "twin car" and fitted with the Twin cam from new?

Ogle designed Cortina, built by Radford. The original was 1500 GT, for Stirling Moss, but it was apparently available to order, but not known how many were built. According to the Ogle register, when the Phillipino car was found, Stirlings car was apparently in a garage rotting away in Lomdon, so this may have been another built, but with a twin cam engine. Unusual that it was the same colour combination, as it was offered in a number of liveries.

Why did they not sell them in Europe? Never knew they even existed. I would have wanted one too.

Spot on interesting chat to the owner today so look out for it in the new Brad Pitt film. He said don't blink or you'll miss it.

I won't spoil it for others, but if you innocently click on the picture to enlarge it so you can see if that passenger really is flicking the bird at the photographer then it tells you exactly what the car is!
