Ford Anglia Museum Piece 6352 Miles Warranted Manumatic Auto 1958 A stunning piece of British motoring history!! This beautiful 1958 Ford Anglia 2 owner car was owned by its first owner until 1999 then by a Ford main dealer that displayed it in their showroom they have issued a letter confirming the cars mileage and authenticity and this we have on file. While with the dealers they carried out a program of sympathetic rejuvenation including but not limited to things like new bumpers hub caps carpets etc plus some work to the cars wiring loom. Apart from these items the car is 100% original and never welded or painted in all these years. Today the original paint does have minor scratches and marks but it would be a tragedy to paint it and spoil this originality. The interior apart from the carpets is as it left the factory and perfect. The most unusual feature of this car is its gearbox this is believed to be a one year only option clutch less Two Pedal system called either a Newton or Manumatic Drive the car comes complete with the booklet telling the new owner how to operate it. Basically you preselect the gear and then accelerate this causes a centrifugal clutch to engage drive and off you go. The vendor has spent a lot of time getting this back into full working order after so little use for so long. While recommissioning the car he also completely rebuilt the brake system (every part including master cylinder all 6 wheel cylinders hoses shoes grease and seals all new). Rebuilt the carburettor so now it starts first push of the button (literally) replaced the service items spark plugs points leads cap coil condenser. Flushed the water system through and even renovated the vacuum wipers so they now work. Underneath is basically corrosion free but the vendor wishes us to point out that there are 2 VERY MINOR places where there are a sign of corrosion one at the base of the off side rear wing (on the seam) the other the battery box both as he said very small but are there. This car represents a once in a life time chance for the avid Ford collector or collectors of rare one off cars. Price is to be advised.
