Michael P.:
Anglias were made by FORD in two body styles: early '50s to '59 and '59
to '67. The early ones were the ones that the hot rodders love(d). I had
a '66 1200 Deluxe back in university. Not a whole lot larger than a Mini
and it had a delightfully 'American' reverse-angle rear wiindow styling.
Top speed of about 72 mph.

Dan, you interested?

350 V8, 400 turbo, new brakes & tires, lots more. $9800 or BO. Buying
house, must sell. 410-679-3305<<
Possible this is an Austin Anglia...? A very popular car with drag
racers, but don't know if it was still being made in `51. (?) As
mentioned, Mini production didn't start until `59. I had a `60 850, and
it was a fairly low number, as I recall.<
