1965+ Ford Cortina Mk1.

Chrome strips indicate Super trim, badge on rear wing?

Always assuming, of course, that this décor is what left the factory. The chrome strips look thin and amateurish and the badge is in the wrong place. It is, however, still a Mk1 post facelift Cortina, (probably)!

As far as I understand, the SUPER badge was triangular https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/LKQAAOSwzMphF8jp/s-l500.jpg and a derivative from the bigger Fords.

The GT badges https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/-KoAAOSwI-BWHpJa/s-l500.jpg were shield like in shape, but not as much as the badges indicative of the engine sizes https://i.ebayimg.com/thumbs/images/g/-fAAAOSwjRJi8i-e/s-l300.jpg .

And it was behind the kick down of the side stripe, not in front of it. I am going to enter this as a Ford Cortina Mk1 1965+ without further comment on the trim level.

It's a GT for badge and position. Some export markets - France for example - had Super chrome highlights on the GT, so looks as if J did as well. We have a couple of other Mk1 Cortinas in J - strangely all 3 are white.

That's a 74+ front wing badge from a Mk3, also used on facelift Capri Mk1.
