Hi Rochdale,
I agree that those uprights on your Marlin Sportster look like Cortina.

I think they are also used on Westfield 7's...

Peter,
I think there are detailed pictures of the Ford suspension on the Sportster build CD. I think I may have a copy on an old PC that I no longer use. If your interested i'll try and fire it up again to retrieve the pictures.

cheers,

Peter
