That Anglia is a weapon of a thing! Looks like a great day out.

God that Anglia looks freaking awesome. Also that road where you took the last photo, I wish I could find roads like that, it looks beautiful.

Which idiot thought it'd be a super great idea to gather so many nice cars to the beach with the salt air?

Some rare cars there. I've never seen a Mk111 Zephyr Estate wagon before that would be a rare beast in Australia . But I have seen one V6 powered Mk111 Cortina 2 door at Ballarat (vic ) swap meet a few years back for sale. Also a good photo of the black Cortina in the English country side interesting photos you have posted up.

Salt air is a hazard in the Uk and they add rocksalt to the roads in winter too, but a regular hose down and a steam clean of the underside helps to keep the rust at bay. This is what Uk weather does to old fords: http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=102191 |
