Nah I don't think they ever came out with 1600's but I know mk2's did. It might be a 1600 out of a cortina or a mk2 escort.

They did come out with 1600's but not in Australia. The "Mexico" Escort was put together to cellebrate the London to Mexico rally in 1970. It was basically a 1600GT in a Type 49 Mk 1 shell. Was so popular it carried over to the Mk 2. Came in wild colours with a stripe down the side and over the roof, and "mexico" decals over the doors. Original Mexicos are fetching 3-5000 pounds in the UK nowadays.
