1962 Ford Anglia 1600GT

[comfortablynumb]

Hi all,my son is thinking about moving on his Anglia. It's a solid shell, in need of a paint job, Cortina front struts, new M16 calipers and discs. Engine is a crossflow, lightened and balanced, big valve head, 244 cam, new Weber 32/36, Vernier timing pulley, duplex chain, new bearings, followers,oil pickup pipe, 1300 drilled and pocketed pistons, Ashley exhaust, still on 4 speed gearbox. Needs new screen seal and some interior work, but drove 180 miles faultlessly the other day. Any ideas? Cheers.
Btw  all steel shell and Revo wheels .[/img]

I love a nice Anglia.

Specially one that is modified with the right parts, like that one.

Looks like a keeper to me...

It’s only worth £120.....
Prices will soar in the next 20 years ... May as well hang on to it...😉

Thank god for that, I thought he'd overpaid when he told me he'd given £80 for it! 🤔
