I can't see anything which makes me think Aus build. Unusual grille, but no trace of local assembly in Indonesia; however Philippines or Taiwan did odd grille tweaks on their Cortina builds, so likely it's one of these, maybe 1974-ish.

I did some digging in local forums, MkIII and MkIV Cortina's here were locally-assembled by Indonesian Service Coy. I agree that the remains of local assembly are very rare, heck even surviving cars are very rare today.

:king: Updated, and Indonesia added to the list of Cortina assembly countries I've created in forum. Maybe Indonesian grilles were unique??

probably an aftermarket piece, considering the rounded headlight model had this grille in the original ad for Indonesia market:

Alongside the Aussie Ford Falcon. The Cortina was sold as a car for middle class families in Indonesia which was brought there to compete with the LJ-LH Series Toranas which was doing very well in Indonesia and got many fleet sales there.
