Default Re: 1967 MK2 Cortina Saloon 220 Serial Prefix

Firstly, the C doesn't mean Australia, it means UK, an Export CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kit. This code was used on Cortinas, Capri's, Escorts, etc., shipped to not only Australia for assembly but to South Africa, Thailand and Japan. The 71 code means Cortina, 2-door, perhaps with a bench seat?, I've come across it before. All the other coding is correct with the Y trim code being Palamino.
