History
Ian O'Brien 1948 Ford Anglia Tudor Sedan
Round 2
In mid to late 1979 john de vries and
my self chopped the top 2/1/2" and repainted it gun metal blue.
Round 3
1980 changed the motor to
186 with 5 speed and rear end to fiat 1500 disc
, drove the car like this for several months until the rear end broke
and the gearbox became noisy, so I changed the gear box to 4 speed and
the rear end back to torana. I sold the car to a caryard
in 83 for a family car and got out for a while.
