105 notchback Anglia? Very popular with the modified Ford guys -several in our area with VTec engines.

You don't say what type of Anglia. Sit up and beg, or angle box. Either make good gassers.  |

Sorry Why not an Anglia? There was a "hotrod" one featured in Custom Car magazine a few months ago. It had a Ford Pop radiator shell which didn't really work for me -Id've done something interesting with the original front panels -but plenty of scope for a custom. I assume you've seen the gasser'd Anglia estate that's currently for sale? |

My first car was an Anglia. NOT the one with the funny rear window, a black sit up and beg one.

Why not a period 60s/70s one with 1500 pre Xflow or even a 1600 Xflow capri struts and discs, lowered etc etc.
Or maybe something like Gary Laytons Anglia. Blown Rover pro street, caged and tubbed. Can't find any pictures of it

hello kev, well I'm hoping/assuming we could do what everybody seems to be doing and puts an engine in it and just send off the logbook with new engine size ? As for all the other suggestions ,my son wants a pro street type ? (Boring ?) but I know kev is going to slap my wrist.. |
