They had to reengineer the suspension to accomodate the larger 6 cylinder engine. I think it had a problem with too much weight at the front and the weight/weight was to much at the front. I never took pics of the corty but I got a mk1 escort 1980 model 1.6L atm. Ill see about getting that up in the showroom of the aussie bit soon.
