Please advice

Hi,
I need some advice on this one, I was looking for Cortina and found mk2 1964 for 20000 where it says that some engine job required, does that price looks too suspicious ? It says that 10 years ago body was done especially on the right wing as it had some small dents all over .It wasnt been driving too much from that time.
I want to hear your opinion because its located quite far from me and I dont want to drive there to find out its a scam or something.

Thanks in advance

£20K for a mk2 depending on condition, history etc is in the right ball park. But if it's a 64 car then it will be a mk1 and could be a bargain! Post up some pics so we can see what you have found.

I will post some pictures, i need to figure out how to do that because another website doesnt allow me to save them, give me some time.

Get the VIN from the seller and we can tell you what it is you have found. A 1964 produced car can not be a mk2, but it can be a series 2 mk1.
Also if you get the VIN maybe there can be some info in the register.

'series 2 mk1'.
Not series, they are either aeroflow or pre-aerolflow Mk 1 cars

Well, we can atleast be sure its not a -64 mk2... and that it can be a 1964 built facelift.
I agree with you to call them pre fl and fl, but sometimes that can be a bit confusing for people new to the subject. I have seen several ads over the years where its says series 1 and series 2 both for early and late mk1 and mk2.
