I have an article on the Lotus Cortina from The UK "Car" magazine dated June 1967, if there is interest I will scan and post? Actually, this issue is devoted to Lotus, fun stuff. Another interesting item is that the Mk2 was built by Ford, not Lotus, and was named the "Cortina Lotus", not the "Lotus Cortina" and conseuently did not have a Lotus type number. In other words, the Mk1 was a Lotus, but the Mk2 was not.
