1959 Ford Anglia 2ltr Zetec

I’m a 53yr old mobile service forklift truck engineer from South Wales.

I’ve always been into classic cars but I’m leaning towards American muscle trucks lately, I own a 5.4 supercharged 2003 f150 Harley Davidson but I’m after 1955 f100 because I want to slam it and stick a spiced up coyote engine in it just like the Stallone f100.

The Anglia was a designed way ahead of its time. The very distinctive rear window, which had a reverse slope, and the overall shape and functional rear fins gave it the appearance of a small, modern American car — not that there was such a thing as a small Ford in the U.S. of 1959.

The engine was completely new and quite a departure from the side valve, flathead of the 100E. The new power plant was a high revving, overhead-valve, that produced 39 horsepower at 5,000 rpm. In addition, the four-speed synchromesh manual transmission was the first of its kind fitted to a production saloon built by Ford’s Dagenham factory.

My 1959 Ford Anglia 2ltr Zetec powered, it’s had a few little improvements from when it came off the factory line, I don’t think Ford would have believed you could do this with their little car, from 39 hp to just over 200Bhp.
