Ford Cortina Mk I – original vintage 1960s CUD keyring

We are not licensed by Ford Motor Company or any of their representatives to reproduce any of the registered Ford logos and badge designs.

The keyring in this listing is an original vintage Ford keyring which will have been produced many years ago.

An original Ford Cortina keyring with a badge will have been produced in the 1960s .

Please note that the badge may have been remounted onto the present leather keyfob at a later date .

We have just this one example of this keyring to offer – when it has been sold this listing will be cancelled .

Original keyrings for Ford Cortina Mk 1 are relatively scarce items .

This keyring is in good condition with a vitreous enamel badge mounted onto a keyfob in black leather .

The vitreous enamel badge is in good condition for it’s age as can be seen from the listing photos whilst the leather keyfob is well worn in .

The badge was made by CUD ( Castles Unit Developments of Leicester ) who made these badges in the 1960s and famously produced the torpedo shaped keyfobs .

We would have expected to see this badge mounted onto a torpedo shaped keyfob and it may be that the original torpedo keyfob had worn out and the owner remounted the badge onto another keyfob that they had handy – the keyfob which the badge is currently mounted onto – things like this did often happen in those ‘make & mend’ days .

We could have remounted the badge onto a new leather keyfob ourselves – but preferred to leave it as it is with it’s unknown past !

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive .
