1966 Ford Anglia 1600

The 105E is a real gem with its famous big bore short stroke engine, which allowed it to be modified with great success.

This version is fitted with a Ford 1600 cc (Escort Sport engine) with a downdraft Weber carburettor and sports cam. Car is in very good condition - running with a new battery.

The well-known Cosworth brand was formed when Mike Costin and Keith Duckworth, both brilliant engineers, got together and developed first of all the Cosworth MAE engine (Modified Anglia Engine). The 105E, in MAE form, was soon revving to over 9000 rpm from its base 5000 rpm in standard form! This amazing engine was soon developed into the Single Cam A Series (SCA) and later into the 5 main bearing and Four Valve A Series (FVA). In the end, the most famous Formula One DFV (Double Four Valve) came into fruition as the most successful ever Formula One engine.

Besides the engine, the Anglia was a lightweight, 2 door car with good handling, so it was natural that the 105E soon became an excellent production car racer.
