This Car This outstandingly original Lotus Cortina was sold new in the state of Texas by Kenray Ford Sales Inc. of Dallas to Mr. Charles Barnes, and the title was issued in his name on May 10, 1967. Mr. Barnes then retained ownership of the high-performance British Ford until mid-2013, having driven the car just 18,500 miles in 46 years.

What a great looking car--you can even see the 'wear' to the green stripe.

Much info out there on this car, including its sympathetic revival and even a TV show where it was bought and resold.

This was a really interesting story and I seriously thought about this car at the time I bought mine. I seem to recall dicussions around $50k but that was a few years ago.....not that many actually! They are now suggesting $100k so I will watch this one with interest......
