Not mine:
CL ad
"CONVERTIBLE ANGLIA 1937 - $3900 (ANAHEIM)"
"NEED COMPLIET RESTORATION CALL ME 714.496 8181 "
-Talk about neat. It looks like its a Ford 7Y per wikipedia. Dont know about the price...whether its high or low! Lotus Twin Cam? Zetec on carbs? YB? It needs something. Somebody should save this.

It's a "Tourer". Some quick googling and it says that the Tourer is a rare Aussie only option.

I could see it hod rod style with a Rover V8, but a big four would no doubt be an easier fit.

Some more googling; there maybe only 205 British Pre-War Fords actually shipped to North America at the time they were new.

I saw a similar car at the Portland Swap meet earlier this month. It was a barn find coupe in very good restorable condition for $3900.

Interesting car no doubt but they look a bit odd in tourer form to my eyes. The front and rear look a bit mismatched.
is this an ANGLIA? i just research it on google. I wish i could own one someday. do you have any sites on mind where to buy classic car parts like this?
