Hi Guys
What's the going rate for a full set of Cortina uprights, hubs and calipers in good condition?
I've just seen
this and made me wonder what to do with my set seeing as I probably won't be using them!

Wow... Looks like they can only increase in value. I have a set I got from Zilspeed that I have reconditioned with new bearings and nice pretty paintwork. Wonder what they'd fetch on craz'e'bay!
Crazy
Especially when you can get a set of secondhand single seater, lightweight uprights for similar money! I know the geometry and wishbones will be all
different but nothing's insurmountable!

Have you noticed that there's a seller on ebay who keeps selling Left hand Cortina uprights on their own. At least half a dozen have been sold. I wonder what he does with the right hand ones???
I bought a complete cortina front suspension assembly for £20 the same week that a set of as removed uprights sold for £120 ebay IS crazy
A set went for £185 a month or so back!! madness - it does seem to depend where they are listed on ebay though, I've picked up a couple of sets
for well under £40 from the classic parts listings recently - if people list them under 'kit car parts' people will seemingly pay really
stupid money for them though!

wyn how much you want for them? if i were you i would keep them, because when they are gone you would wish you never sold them.

What mk Cortina are these suitable uprights off?
There's a Mk2 in my Dad's field waiting to be scrapped.
I guess the answer is to list them as Westfield (Cortina) parts!
Rob - I haven't decided whether to sell or not yet. I need to clean them up first (first go at electrolysis!). I haven't quite decided on
what uprights to use - I've got the single seater ones and I could then use the centre lock wheels off my single seater if I go down this route
(I can't drive them at the same time!). I need to start making decisions!
Wyn
i would keep them. just in case. plus by the time you cleaned them up they be worth loads!
