Site visitor Pieter Viljoen
from South Africa has sent me a photo of his Ford
Anglia.
Pieter
says "Pieter Viljoen here, all the
way from sunny South Africa. I' m in the process
of rebuilding my Anglia. I didn't want to go the
restoration back to former glory route. So I
decided to do an engine upgrade and even
exterior/interior upgrade.
Specs now looks as follows:
Model: 1961 Ford Anglia 105E
Engine: Mazda FE3N 2.0l 16 valve motor,
compression dropped to 8.0:1, fitted with T3
Turbo
Gearbox: Mazda RX7 Gearbox
Diff: Toyota LSD\par Intercooler: Mazda Rotary
13B
Exterior has been smoothed, shaved and repainted.
(No door handles, extruding fuel filler cap etc.)
I'm in the process of finishing off engine and
gearbox fitment. I want to have an Anglia that
weighs no more than 900kg's with a 200 kilowatt
engine. (280 Bhp) Then to finish the
interior."
Lets
hope Pieter keeps us up to date with the rebuild.
