Ford Cortina GT 347ci V8

 

The British are coming! Now live on Premier Cars

This white 1965 Ford Cortina GT is a left-hand-drive model that was modified around 2013 as part of a year-long build carried out by Johnny Riddling of Atlanta, Georgia. Work involved customizing the body and chassis, installing a fuel-injected 347ci V8 with Air Flow Research aluminum heads, and retrofitting a Tremec six-speed manual transmission. It's listed now by our Local Partner, @premier_sports_cars, on BaT!

The car rides on a Mustang II-style front end and a Heidts independent rear setup with MCS adjustable coilovers, rack-and-pinion steering, 15” steel wheels, and Wilwood discs, while the cabin has been outfitted with a roll cage, black bucket seats, a MOMO steering wheel, and Smiths gauges. Since the car was last offered on BaT in September 2025, the side stripes were removed. Tap the @bringatrailer linkinbio to see the full listing before it closes Wednesday.
