Gary,
I had a '57 Anglia when I was in high school in 1965. The other kids
laughed at me! It actually was a neat car in terms of its quality. Pretty
much a miniature Model A Ford with an updated body. A friend and I put new
rings in it with the engine in place and it was an easy job. I sold it for
$75 and it only had 30,000 miles on it. What was bad on the car was the
shift from 2nd to 3rd- it really needed a 4 speed gearbox.
