This 1964 Ford Cortina 1500 Deluxe sedan has somehow survived for over 50 years having never been registered or even driven. It is totally stock and unrestored with the 58 miles on the odometer said to be accurate. The blue/blue scheme and RHD/4-door/automatic arrangement make this a very basic example, but the originality is quite charming. It is unclear why it was stored for so long. Find it here on eBay in Cambridge, England for 25,000 GBP (today ~$38k USD). Special thanks to BaT reader Kyle K. for this submission.

No mention is made about what items might have been changed…. but we would suspect that these are not the original tires. We have never seen another Mk1 Cortina with an automatic.

The deluxe interior looks great and it is cool to see a totally stock dash and steering wheel. Pedal wear and markings on the controls might be more evidence to verify the mileage story.

The engine bay does look quite original. We are not sure what the original batteries would have looked like, but those vertical terminal wires are interesting. Note the paper hang tag on the harness at the firewall.

The odometer shows the 58.2 miles. Obviously this reading is not an air-tight story by itself, but the condition of the car is pretty compelling.
