Ford Anglia 468 V8 1952

Allmän beskrivning : 1952 Ford Anglia The last year for the classic English Ford Anglia look was 1953 after which the design drastically changed.  The look of these early Anglia's is extremely unique compared to similar vehicles of the times.  They had a shorter wheel base than was the trend in America at the time but their uniqueness made them a go to car for Hotrodders all around the world in later years.  This 52 Anglia is an all original steel car from front to rear.  It is painted in slick Black paint which has a nice finish and is accented with Blue pinstriping on the headlights and deck lid.  These cars didn't feature a ton of chrome/stainless like most other vehicles did of this vintage but the two hole grill and side panel openings were framed in stainless which is in good shape on this car.  It has the louvered hood which was the perfect addition and really suits the car well.  The car was built to have the racing look that is popular with these Anglias and all though it could easily be raced given all of the performance features it has been primarily used as a show car.  It has spin works front wheels with wide 5 spoke wheels and Mickey Thompsons in the back completing the nostalgic dragster look.  We mentioned that is hasn't been raced but that isn't for the lack of ability.  Under the hood this Anglia is packing a 468 V8 motor that puts out over 700 horsepower.  It was custom built by Houston Engine and Balancing which has been in business for over 30 years building NHRA and IHRA motors.  It is topped with Brodix Big Brodie heads, a 750 cfm carb, roller rockers, stud girdles, air gap intake, Brodix valve covers, MSD distributor, and braided lines.  The car runs cool with an aluminum radiator and electric fans which even manage to keep it around 210 degrees in the Texas summer.  The engine compartment was also cleanly finished out with things like the stainless firewall cover to make it something you will be very proud to show off at shows.  Backing up the motor is a 2 speed powerglide transmission with 3000 stall converter and transmission cooler.  It shifts smoothly and is paired with a Ford 9 inch rear end with with Nodular spool and 3:55 gears.  A lot of cars set up with drivetrains like this really struggle when you get out of town but this one will run down the highway.  It has a 12 gallon fuel cell mounted in the trunk area between the tubs which is also where the Optima battery has been relocated in a custom mount.  The suspension utilizes adjustable coil overs in the rear with leaf spring front suspension and a Ibeam straight axle.   On the inside sits two high back racing bucket seats and a full pro built roll cage.  The upholstery is done in Grey cloth and was also added to the roll cage for a more finished out appearance.  To the floor is mounted a Hurst racing shifter in an aluminum box with line lock.  The dash is painted black and topped with toggle switches for the lights, fuel pump and electric fan.  It also features the push button start, a large Stewart Warner tachometer, shift light, and Autometer gauges.  The car also has a cowl mounted fuel pressure gauge.  Below the dash is where you will find the MSD 7AL-2 Plus Rev limiter and MSD pro power ignition.  As you can see this car wasn't built just to be a looker.  It was constructed to both look great and perform extremely well.  It comes with a complete build book and it is clear a lot more was invested in this Hot Rod than our asking price.  It also come a set of wheelie bars.  Add this Anglia to your collection for only $53,750.00!   NOW REDUCED DOWN TO $40,000.00!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
