I think thats been around longer than 10 years now hasnt it. I have some pictures of it somewhere I took years ago. Always like it if my failing memory serves me rightly, it was at the first doncacter custom show we went to. the one we got your sis to take us to, cos neither of us could drive. and ive been driving for 16 *cough* years. ;D

Al Barnett's Anglia? That's a legendary car that is!
It used to be relatively local to me a few years ago and I saw it out and about occassionaly...it's lasted really well in terms of both taste and build quality.

Its not what I would do to an Anglia, I don;t think anyone else should copy it because this one is "the one". Its a unique car, like has been proven on this thread everybody knows the car, knows a little of its history, knows a story or two about it (even if the facts are blurrer with time or just plain wrong) its a bt of British rodding history. And its not a big buck ride either. Thats why it gets 10/10 from me. But if I were offered it for sale I would probably pass.

Love it.... always have ;D
As has been said already, a legendary part of the British Rodding scene and a testament to the builder that it still looks fantastic

I have to fall in with the 'not to my tastes' category here. However, thats not to say that I cant/don't appreciate it for what it is. I just don't like it !
