Ford Anglia
So its not a SX but I want to share it with you all.
Abount 6 months ago I bought this Ford Anglia for my girlfriend as this is the only car she wants!
So later tonight I will be picking up a 1600 kent motor with a 1200 Anglia Super gearbox.
Motor swap will get done tonight and tomorrow. Im really excited as this will be my first motor swap by myself and it cant get easier than this!
Currently its still running the original 1000cc motor and gearbox, however its in a very bad condition!
End of the month we will be fitting some Mini Lite 13" wheels! Its gonna look great!
Futher plans is disc brakes infront, full suspention make over. Probably loads of parts from Milton in the UK.
Then a full respray will be happening and the interior will get redone!
Let me know what you guys think.....

Update:
The old motor and gearbox is out. Drive shaft is out! Took is a solid 5 hours to do it all!
Pathetic yes I know! But I was a bit stupid with a few things and we where struggling allot with old bolts!
So here is the old - South African version of a crate motor!
And just a few pics of the process:
Stock:
Well to morrow will be clean-up and new lick of paint on the motor> I need to swop the sump and pick-up also. Then build all the extra parts over to the new motor.
Hope fully no hickups this time!

Hey guys,
So the motor is in and is turning over! I have not started it up yet.
1. Still needs a exhaust
2. Drive shaft must get made shorter
3. Timing must get done
So all an all I am very happy, I really took my time to ensure all was done 100% and I think it will show in the pictures.
Let me know what you guys think.....
PS. My girlfriend calls the car "Smurfness".
Gearbox before and after:
Rest of the parts:

Re: Ford Anglia
Update:
Took the Anglia for her maiden voyage! Turns out the gearbox is a bit stuffed, will get that fixed next week.
Throttle cable I need to adjust a bit, cause its only opening the first butterfly, not the second on full throttle. But is suprisingly nippy with only one butterfly at full tilt!
Needs a new diff ratio now and then also need to pick up my MK2 Cortina struts with discs and calipers to install that.
These I purchased today.........Will be puttin them on tonight! Love them! Super nice! 13" X 7J (-8 offset for a perfect fit!)
