{"product_id":"cortina-twin-cam-forged-heavyweight-sweatshirt","title":"Cortina Twin Cam Forged Heavyweight Sweatshirt - Dean's Classic Cars","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart of the Toolforged line, from Dean's Classic Cars.\u003c\/strong\u003e Every car in this line is built from the tools that kept it running (spanners, sockets, cogs, plugs and pressed steel), arranged until the shape of the car appears out of them. No badges, no wordmarks, no logos on the car itself: just the machine, drawn in the language of the workshop floor. If you have ever had the bonnet up on a cold morning with your knuckles bleeding and the radio on, this line was made for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRight car. Wrong materials. Entirely on purpose.\u003c\/strong\u003e The silhouette, the stance and the year are true to the car. Everything filling them in is workshop steel that has no business being there. A socket where the grille sits. Spanners laid across a roof. A calliper behind a wheel it was never bolted to. Go looking for a part in the wrong place and you will find one, and that is the whole point: this is the car as the tools that kept it running would draw it, not a photograph of it. Zoom in. That is where the fun is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe warmer of our two crew necks. A 1965 Cortina Mk1 twin cam, forged from the tools that kept it alive, on a 350 g\/m² brushed-fleece sweatshirt built for a cold morning.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront three-quarter, bonnet shut, sat inside a thin concentric ring with Dean's signature across the top. Look once and it is a twin cam Mk1 Cortina: round lamps, the full-width grille, split quarter bumpers at the front and a white body with a green flash down the side. Look again and that flash is a rack of green-handled screwdrivers and pliers, the grille is sockets in rows, the bonnet is laid with spanners, and a plain steel bolt and washer sit where a badge might be. The plate reads CORTINA 65, black with silver characters. A torque wrench with a green grip lies across the bottom, engraved 1965 CORTINA TWIN CAM. These were homologation cars: a 1558cc twin cam four, lowered suspension and a body built to go saloon car racing, which it did, and won.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eBuilt from the tools that built it.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDean's Classic Cars is one man's obsession, made wearable. Dean has spent his life around British cars from the era when you could still fix one on your own driveway, and every design in the collection starts from a real car, checked against the real specification, before a single tool is drawn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat matters, because the people who buy these know. They know how many wiper arms a Series 1 E-Type carried. They know a Mexico ran a pushrod Kent, not a twin cam. So nothing here is decorative guesswork. Get the car right and the artwork earns its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAt a glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e heavyweight crew neck sweatshirt on a Stanley\/Stella Changer 2.0, 100% organic cotton, 350 g\/m² brushed fleece.

Sockets make the grille, spanners the bonnet, and green-handled tools run the length of the flank where the stripe would be, drawn in bright metal and racing green against the dark cotton so the shape reads clean from across a room. The car carries no maker's badge anywhere on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"Dean's Classic Cars","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":57451686527302,"sku":"3008058_12585","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":57451686560070,"sku":"3008058_12586","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":57451686592838,"sku":"3008058_12587","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":57451686625606,"sku":"3008058_12588","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2XL","offer_id":57451686658374,"sku":"3008058_12589","price":64.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6583\/7382\/files\/unisex-eco-changer-2.0-sweatshirt-black-front-6ab54db692a14.jpg?v=1790266817","url":"https:\/\/ricki-robin.store\/products\/cortina-twin-cam-forged-heavyweight-sweatshirt","provider":"Ricki Robin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
