*Classic 1960s Ford saloon
*Recent extensive bodyshell refurbishment
*Running and driving very wellFord belatedly switched to an overhead-valve engine for its smallest family saloon with the introduction of the Anglia 105E in September 1959. An ultra short-stroke design, the 997cc four proved to have a real appetite for revs and bags of tuning potential, as demonstrated by its success in Formula Junior and Formula 3. The newcomer's McPherson strut/live axle running gear was sourced from the superseded Anglia/Prefect 100E but the new four-speed gearbox represented a welcome advance on its predecessor's three-speeder. The styling too was novel, with 'grinning' radiator grille and reverse-slope rear window, the latter affording greater rear headroom as well as keeping clean in bad weather. The 105E Anglia in its various guises was an outstanding sales success for Ford, selling more than a million before production ceased in 1967.
Finished in blue with matching original vinyl interior, this 105E Anglia currently displays a total of 84,000 miles on the odometer. The car benefits from recent refurbishment in the form of a new floor; new jacking points; new rear spring hangers; and a re-spray. Presenting nicely and running and driving very well, the car is offered with an original Anglia handbook; sundry bills; and a V5C registration document.
