1949 Ford V8 Pilot - IPV08 |
| These new small cars from Ford were replacements for the old 'sit-up-and-beg' Anglia and Prefect which were pre-war designs. Bodywork was entirely new with marked styling cues from the larger Consul which had been introduced three years earlier. The two-door Anglia provided basic transport whilst the four-door Prefect offered a little more luxury. Engines for both were 1172cc side valve units mated to three speed gearboxes. Our rendition is finished in Lichfield Green. |
