Way too many projects and not enough hours in the day so we are going to sell the Ford Anglia that we bought for a new project, it was going to be along the lines of the Cortina ( we have very, very nearly finished ) it’s a superb base for a project as it’s solid and in great condition … saying that could be just driven as is, doesn’t necessarily need to be a project. Once I have cleaned off the spider webs, put some fresh fuel in and make sure it runs nicely it will be up for sale ….. #fordanglia #project ... See MoreSee Less
