Ford Anglia Motor Racing Photo's - Album No 01

Site Visitor Gerry Taylor has sent me some photo's of the Ford Anglia's he used to race.

Gerry says "I used to race Anglias in the 1970s, and had many variants of the car, engine wise. I began with a Trevor Taylor car in 1966. Then I built a 1650cc which was fairly competitive, then WRA (George Whitehead) built me a 1760cc unit and I put that under another Anglia, and that was successful too. But THE most successful car was the one I raced 1971 thru 75, that was the car sponsored by SWISH. With this car I held many class lap records, Silverstone 1m.8secs. Mallory Park 53secs. also the short circuit at 29secs. Longridge, near Preston.

The first photo is the first Anglia built by Trevor Taylor in 1966 at The Hairpin at Mallory (note no advertising on the cars in those days!)

The second is me leading the BDA engined Anglia of Richard Long at the Devils Elbow at Mallory Park, and the last is a nice shot taken at Silverstone"
