The Appeal

Back in the day, everyone dreamt of owning a Ford Anglia Super 123E. This top-of-the-range edition of the well-known people’s car by Ford attracted the masses thanks to its enlarged engine and more elaborate trim level.

Manufactured in 1964, this Anglia Super GT shows few signs of its range-topping past having been modified and stripped out in its previous life. Over the past few years, it has slowly regained an interior, and has the potential to once again impress at local car meets.

Mechanically sound thanks to low mileage and a surprising maintenance history, it certainly provides an excellent starting point for a cosmetic project. Be it a full-on restoration or a more creative goal, this car may be the perfect quick project car to get you through the final days of winter.

Summary

In very useable condition and mechanically sound, this 1964 Ford Anglia Super GT does feature signs of a varied past. Imperfections and patina throughout the paintwork along with a stripped out interior provide a perfect base for a minor cosmetic project before the sunny days of spring arrive. That being said, it is supposedly in great mechanical condition. After getting a fresh MOT, it is therefore ready to be used on a daily basis according to the current owner.
