    Gear oil is highly overrated...... you can drive a car at least 5 miles without it..... TRUST ME:D:D:D:eek:
     
  4. I,m guessing its Al O'Connor;Al's Gasser.He built a second "pop"after a wreck racing the !st.He.s a good old boy.very down to earth
    I give up driving my van when police were giving traffic bulletins about my slow moving vehicle:(
    In England theyre pops,in the states theyre Anglias,it gets way too complicated any other way
    You built your Anglia right hand drive:confused:purrrrrrrs nice

    Exactly right - Al's Gasser. looooong time ago ;)
     
  6. I.ve read as well,the plants,the years,the continents,was just grasping it then I read they would use any left over bits on any of the models;times were hard and it was a basic runabout.That pretty much throws all the counters in the air.:eek:
     
  7. Did you see it in the States?Many moons ago he took it across America bracket racing......he is a legend in his own underpants :cool:

  10. Congrats on getting it going! What is the deal on that muffler? Steve? Enfo?

    As for the Anglia/Pop thing..........I consider them to be one of the most undersung automotive designs ever.

    The muffler was perfect for my application (NO ROOM) so I was able to have a muffler and an X-pipe, anytime you can merge the exhaust there is power to be found!
     
  12. I,m off again,to add more confusion,beacause hotrods have a '48 cut off,the pop went through to mid '54.but no hotrodder in the world is going to say theirs is a '52?They're all mysteriously '48.Likewise the van is a Thames,its law!!!
