The Lotus Cortina was a high performance sedan built by Lotus and based on the Ford Cortina. Introduced in 1963, the Lotus Cortina, also known as the Ford Cortina Lotus, was built using a Cortina bodyshell, with Lotus development, mechanicals, and branding.

The 1967 Lotus-Cortina Mk2 racecar on display this month was built up from a genuine Lotus Cortina street car by Denver based race team 3R in 1998 and is raced by owner and Lotus expert William Taylor in local Vintage race events when time permits.

A key car in this ambition was the Lotus Cortina which was born through the collaboration between Ford and Lotus. Ford turned to Lotus, to make a high performance and racing version of the Ford Cortina. Lotus made several enhancements to the Lotus Cortina, resulting in a remarkable blend of lightweight construction and striking design.
