Ford Transcontinental ? |

Yes. Hard to tell whether made in Amsterdam (where most of the were built) or in Sandbach, UK where the last couple of hundreds were made. |

This has the earlier grille, so Amsterdam? |

Ah yes, you're correct. I had forgotten there were two versions. Oh dear. The second one had a black grille and the Ford oval above. This one here was made between 1975 and 1978. Here's a link to a good info page about Ford Amsterdam which was recommended to me by DynaMike last year http://www.fordtranscontinental.nl/engels/amsterdam.html which belongs to a site dedicated to the Transcontinental itself: http://www.fordtranscontinental.nl/ |
