Hello, has your car had an engine swap somewhere during its life? My recollection is that Anglias were 8hp, 931cc. If so, someone did the sensible thing and put the bigger engine in it. But maybe my recollections are wrong and there were 10hp Anglias built with 1172cc engines at Dagenham.

Hi yes mine has been swapped out from the original 1172 cc to an "S motor" 1172cc which was a standing engine about 40 years ago, they were used as standing motors for pumps and other applications, the block has a "S" stamped on it, She originally came with the 1172cc 10hp which was only used for the Export Models. Thanks Kevin.

The Ford Sidevalve is a side valve (flathead engine) from the British arm of the Ford Motor Company, often also referred to as the "English Sidevalve". The engine had its origins in the 1930s Ford Model Y, and was made in two sizes, 933 cc (56.9 cu in) or "8 HP", and 1,172 cc (71.5 cu in) or "10 HP".

Excellent restoration,pretty decent.No wavy doors no bondo very clean.Well done..Iam here due to nostalgia...Seven of these were abandoned around my region,back to 1993 when i was 22 years old,i was passionated to fix one by marry all of them ,but due to lack of space ,due to wrong woman in my life and ..wrong mother and bla bla bla,all these beauties gone for scrap 😢.Stupid i was..

My mate on the Island has restored a 1937 7W Ford 10 back in the 80s and still has it today

Kevin. this is a near excellent restoration for sure. The English Ford aka Anglia were well made in the beginning. This is as near perfect as I would ever want. Keep the little lady safe and warm in the winter. You have every right to be very pleased.

Wonderful restore job, thanks for sharing. I remember travelling in a few of these as a kid inthe UK7, my parents never had a car though, only the rich people had cars 🤣. Enjoy and cherish.

Beautiful restoration. I love the simplicity of these little fords. The grill is very BMW like too!

That looks perfect. Beautiful. I was a kid when these were actually on the roads. Well Done.

BEAUTIFUL CAR GREAT VIDEO ENJOYED THANK YOU

My late father worked at Ford in Cork, Ireland, in the 1950s. In, I think, 1952, when I was about six, he took me on a tour of the works where CKD kits shipped from Dagenham, UK, were assembled into finished cars: Anglias, Populars, and Prefects. There was a surprising amount of hand-finishing. I clearly remember a man who was fitting the front seat covers. He took a magnetic hammer, popped a handful of metal tacks in his mouth, then picked them out one by one on the head of the hammer before tapping each neatly and fluently into place with a single stroke. It seemed like magic to me then. Also magical was the worker who applied the painted stripe along the waistline on each side of the cars. It was executed completely freehand in one continuous motion from 'A' to C' pillars, with no mahlstick or any other form of guide or support.

Looks lovely in silver with black wings. I have a 103e pop . Nice restoration credit to you. 😊👍

Mega impressive! Well done mate from the U.K., where my junior school teacher ran one in the 50s. Your colour scheme is fabulous. Certainly a car which I would personally be immensely proud to own.

Marvellous job and nice colour too!

A 1952 Ford Popular (Anglia) was my first car. Cost me £150 in 1960. Not the ideal first car for a teenager. Especially trying to keep up with my mate’s Austin 8 tourer. Lol. Jumping out of gear was their biggest problem. A cir-clip would slip out of its groove on the shaft. Ended up brazing it to the shaft . Then for those long hauls up hills fitted a V8 selector spring. Found that sweet spot that when screwed in would lock it in gear. Brazed a lever onto the screw head . Pushed forward to lock in gear, pulled back to allow me to change into top. Your brought back fond and often frustrating memories of driving a car not designed for a teenager and hot weather.

Hi Jack all of these early cars had some issues as they got older, but a lot more basic than modern ones of today, you need a auto technician with a diagnostic computer no easy or cheap fix these days. My only issue was the manual fuel pump, changed to an electric 6V pump and the problem was fixed. Thanks Kevin

@@kevinbrown9265 . I know that the simplicity of older cars enabled the owner to do his own mechanical work, if he was inclined. The majority of us learnt that way. My Popular taught me also and put me on the path of car restoration . The monthly car magazines of the period where a testament to how many fixed their own cars. Something that is beyond our capability in modern cars if other than a mechanical issue . 😀

Very nice job should be all black, has Henry Ford once said you can have any colour you like as long as it’s BLACK.

From memory the drivers side has 6 because of the seat slide adjuster which is fixed through the floor aswell, the passenger side only has 4 no adjuster on that side. Thanks Kevin

I lived in Auckland in the 70's and a mate (now living in the USA) had built a '48 Anglia into a hot rod with a chevy. His body work was in nice condition but he had several parts cars ,some prewar. When his project was finished the rest went off to the scrap as his mother was getting upset about the scrap pile . Today i doubt very much th same thing would be done today, scrapping straight rust free cars . back then I worked on ots of Anglias,Populars Prefects etc. as the NZ car fleet was pretty ancient in general. 😁

Very nice 👌

Hi Colin thanks for the comment just a note on the engine in her, no water pump on this one not the original motor, it is a "S" series ie a standing motor from the same era, a standing pump or something similar but still rated as 1172 cc.

@@kevinbrown9265 Cheers, Kevin, that's right; the export model was 1172cc, while the British model was 933cc. While these engines were used to drive trailer pumps, generators, refrigeration etc, and as marine engines, they were all based on the automotive engines. The water pump I mentioned was the cooling water pump, which the British version didn't have; it relied on thermosyphon effect, which doesn't sound as though it should be enough, but thanks to large diameter hoses - just like yours - and a large header tank on a tall radiator, it did. About a pint or a little more of water was lost to evaporation each week if the car was in use every day, so it had to be kept topped up. Wishing you tons of fun with yours!

Prefect, 💯👍

Thanks from what I have been told the cars were imported as separate modules so they could be made to order either 8hp or 10hp with a different front end with the option of running boards and interior light. So I don't think you would get matching engine and chassis numbers, Mine was also 6 volt .

Hi Des had it tailor made, there maybe one you can buy off the shelf in the UK, but not here in NZ. The one I picked was similar to the existing headliner in the car and the seats were based on the original pattern that was under a second layer of upholstery. Thanks for your comment. Kevin

Woww beautiful car

AWESOME

Great to see one still in original condition. Most of today's "survivors" are heavily modified hot rods. The little Ford Anglia, Prefect and Popular, because of their cheapness and simplicity, appealed to modifiers the 1960s and the appeal still continues. There are Ford "side valve" restorers here in Australia but they mainly have restored the later 100e cars

@kevinbrown9265

Thanks Michael for your comment, you are right about these cars being hot rodded, that type of restoration never appealed to me, I'm not a purest but enjoy the process of bringing a car back to life as it was manufactured apart from a more modern look, with the colour combination (Not to everyone's taste by the look of the dislikes she has) One thing with a restoration of this type, is the availability of spare parts which are plentiful here in NZ and in the UK, not like my latest project where most of the parts have to been manufactured by order. Thanks again Kevin.

Hi Rory they are called Trafficators and are all electric 12 or 6 volt. The controller is located inside the arm a simple copper wound unit that when power is applied it pushes a lever out to raise the arm, when power is turned off it drops back down to it's resting position. The switch is usually found in the center of the steering wheel above the horn with a left or right action. This is how this Anglia is set up, some older cars may be different. Good luck Kevin.

You also said the mileage is 148,000. Deleting the 20,000 you say the new engine has done, is it possible the original did 128,000 ? I can smell the interior from here 😂 wonderful.
