Growing up in North Wales I remember in our village there was a lad around 1980 who had 2 Ford Anglia's & his nickname was "Slow" Steve, good times!!!

can't save everything. Years ago, I had a P4 Rover project turned out to be a lot worse than I thought and then lost storage for it, advertised it for spares or repair but no interest except from a couple of guys who wanted it for banger racing in a large Rover meet. I kept a few bits from it but otherwise I needed to get rid of it so it would have gone to the scrapyard , i remember seeing a few photos of it after they'd prepared it and it looked far better than it ever did when i had it, so looks can be deceiving when you see what look like good condition cars - it was pretty rotten underneath. It ended up going out in a blaze of glory, being smashed up and the final memento i have is the bonnet mascot removed as the car was crushed in the scrapyard.

Shame ya not in nz I have a couple cars not much body work and a van getting bad I also have mk 3 zephyr

We did a deal, the guy paid me £1500 to take it away.

You must love heartache..

So sad..... was probably somebody's pride and joy at one stage in it's life.

While there is metal there is a restoration , how deep are your pockets . Great little car

You have put them back on the road. please.

This takes me back to when I was 18 years old, now 69. I had a pale blue one with I think blue interior. I know my dad replaced the cam shaft. but it was a good car. Mick

Wow!! It didn't break in two when you jacked it up. There are some people that will do that up with sheer bloody mindedness.

Rust What rust ? plenty parts very interested in our project good luck

Greetings from America I love English Fords I’ve had for myself

if you rebuild it i will eat my hat

That is the most sorryest looking Ford Anglia I've seen

Interesting car. Reminds me of the Trabant 601 in some ways.

great rat rod potential, fill the hole in with license plates lol

Nice to see you have the other angila the mini looks a good project. Looking forward to seeing more on the ford

Great job! Your helper did a great job too.

My dads first car was an Anglia estate: 903 ADL in 1971. My brother had an estate too: FLT306C and guess what? I had a Anglia too! KDL 794F in 1982 which had the 1200 engine and was a blue saloon .

Blimey the rust on this poor thing, my dad had a Ford Anglia as his first car. what your plan for this rusty thing. Is there any spare parts for it??

You Bought it!!😂😂😂😂😂

very good video

Blimey not surprised my mate had a company Anglia he told me after a little while rust was everywhere cheers Stephen ✌️✌️

Dagenham finest..

That is one sad looking car.

Wow, that’ll take some T cut 😂

Wow that is so rusty, I remember how rusty these used to get, loads of them going round full of filler to try and hide the rust.

My first car back in 1967/8 was a very rusty base 1962 105E - both front wing tops had already been mostly eaten away, someone had pop riveted crudly shapped tin wing tops over the almost none esistent originals and the clutch sounded like a bag of rusty nails but the engine & gearbox were strong - lots of teenage fun was had with that car !

How you gonna repair that lol😂

My god its in a right state you have your work cut out there

Love them cars theres just something about them so easy to on the engine i like the way the back windows open

Slight bit rust I can see . Shell we say it's well used. When are you collecting the rest can't wait to see more. What was the music you played when changing the wheels really liked that.

new more videos fabout this

I would to see someone do a video on a car like this and see if you reused everything and tried to repair it if you could do a cheap down and dirty cosmetic restoration and repair every panel instead of making panels out of metal just cutting out rust and welding pieces in place of it doing it quick and cheap with whatever leftover scrap pieces of metal you have from your previous weld repair products and see if you could bring a car like this back to somewhat decent state atleast the bodywork if nothing else

When I was about 4/5yrs old, my dad had a light blue Ford Anglia. He traded it for a new Triumph 1300, also in light blue. The Triumph suffered a problem, the front end started to crack and break off. He got rid of that and bought a Rover 2000 P6, it was like a mid blue colour. It was hard on tyres so he got rid of that and bought a white Ford Corsair when I was about 7yrs old. The Ford was traded for a Jaguar 420G, and WHAT fantastic a car that was!

when are you going to do a "will it start" on this old car.

Had a few of these back in early 1970’s. Pretty reliable cars but all of them had rust! So simple to work on, we changed engine to 1500cc and changed front brakes and suspension to Ford classic (disc brakes), with wider wheels they looked OK. It was still just a Ford Anglia! So narrow and cramped. Without something done to suspension they would lean like a boat around corners. I was so pleased to upgrade to Cortina mk2.

I had one when growing up in England. The first on looked like most Amglias after only several years. Absolute junk. But great to see this guy picking them up. Good luck mate.

Mot and tax exempt drive as is lol

great video mate thats prob the worst one ive ever seen too

If anyone has a car standing for long periods..just put diesel in a spray bottle and spray every where in and outside of the car.and depends on the weather at least evey 3 months

From across the pond: As my former body man say's "putty and paint, will make it what it ain't." My first hall-a-way was a 25 yr. old '39 Chevrolet 4 dr. salon, with vacuum assist shift. Cheers. Narragansett Bay

My only question is Why the Hell would you want to ? Terrible car

Parts 👍

Greetings from Scotland! Oh my poor old Angular! My first car in 1970 was an old Anglia 998cc 105e reg. BHB 804. My Uncle died and he left it to me in his will, so I went to get it and found it was abandoned at the bottom of an old scrap tip! My brother said "Forget it!" but I was determined to have that car! I was only 16yo at that time so I had a year before I could get my licence and I thought it would make a good project. I was already indentured as an apprentice HGV mechanic at a main Ford dealers since I turned 15yo so I had plenty of access to discounted parts. I replaced a lot of the underbody and rear chassis legs, apart from a few other cosmetic bits, I had a roadworthy car by the time I got my licence. I thrashed it mercilessly (I mean - 998cc - it HAD to be thrashed to get any sort of decent performance! 🤣🤣I eventually sold it to a young apprentice of mine and I upgraded to a 1200 Super! Reg. CHB 328D I had built a lotus twin cam 1558cc by then so it quickly had a heart transplant, a new GT gearbox and flared arches with suitable big rims I loved both of those old beasties! I wish I had kept the reg documents for the no. plate on the 1st one! It would look good on my BM 740D now!

Can't see the point really. 🤔

My grandmother had one of these brand new (estate version). I can still remember riding in it late 60’s/early 70’s. They came from the factory already rusty I think. Worth a fortune e now though fully restored. Tempting to restore ?.

you have your work cut out with that one good luck

It's gone. You should have swept it into a bin bag to take it home!😅
