Thought a few people may be interested in my new buy. Won it on ebay, collecting later this week.






Is a 1959 Anglia 100e
Was last on the road 2 years ago. Have only seen the photos, not the car in person so am expecting some work and pretty open minded about it. Anyone want to guess how much I paid? Car is complete.

 

I would be interested as i have been looking for one of these myself
cheers

Ł250 I won it for. What do people reckon on this? I know from the pictures can only guess the condition but i think was a good price. Was a blue car originally but had been painted in Red Oxide lower half.

 

Looks good for the money, youll have to start a resto thread on it

 

Resto thread and get rid of the plates for some black and silver ones lol. I hate seeing old cars with 21st century plates on them

 

Yeah I will get a resto thread up once collected. Just waiting on the seller as per usual!

 

Be a good buy if you can get the reg number off..

 

be a good project whats the plan?

 

Looks like a great base, wish I could find something like that.

 

Picking up Sat morning so will start a resto once in my garage.

Garage has no power so looking for maybe a petrol generator or an air compressor. I live on a forces base and have a garage here. Do have access to a 4 poster ramp, but as this workshop is a small treck from my garage I would rather do work in my own garage where possible.

Would an 18v cordless drill be powerfull enough to use a wire brush attatchment? Would save the need for a noisy generator.

Plans for the car will be decided once I have it and have gone over it. Will initially strip it and sort it bit by bit and get it running/driving. Future plans, possibly engine conversion to something not done before, but one thing at a time!

 

Very cool project/car.I will be looking forward to the updates.

 

Exactly what i want

 

Nice car.
Drill will be fine,plenty of batteries though as they'll drain quickly.
That's well worth restoring.

 

roof chop an a rice burner engine would be cool

 

Are you sure thats an Anglia the grill suggests its a Prefect. The chrome head light surrounds are from the later 107e which was a 100e with the later 105e engine only made in 1959.

1959 Anglia 1172cc side valve


1959 Prefect 1172cc side valve


1959 Prefect 997cc ohv

 

Very cheap that mate! Didn't see it on there and I look for them most days

Much rot you reckon? What's the plans?

 

Rod- It is a 1959 Anglia 100e, but has headlamp trim from a prefect and older style rear lamps. I have only seen it from the photos, never smart buying a car like this blind, but for Ł250 i'm sure even if it came to it I could get money back on parts!

 

Its a fekin bargain! Deffo needs a dedicated build thread.

 

Looks like a good base for a nice project.

Have fun
