Ford 100E Sidevalve Vans and Estates

Please note: I receive no income from this channel, I do not endorse or support in any way whatsoever any of the advertisers RUclips have unilaterally attached to this video. Launch, production and publicity photographs of the Ford 100E Squire, original Escort and Thames van.

There is something so honest about these designs. They look eager to work like a cute sheepdog :)

I drove a 1958 100E (English Ford Anglia) 2-door while in high school. It wouldn't run at interstate speeds but it was one of the most fun cars I've ever owned. Now,, to find one that hasn't been completely butchered is virtually impossible in the US. I know because for the past ten or so years I have searched for one but now, at 77, I've given up because I don't have much time left. It only had a small flat head four cylinder engine but it did everything I wanted it to do and it was totally dependable with terrific gas mileage. I'll always treasure the memories of that little car.

I just got my RHD 1956 Anglia two door running. Super fun.

I had a two door, blue 100e sidevalve as my first proper car ( it replaced an Issetta bubble car!) I think badged as a Popular.
Long time and many miles ago .

Love all those English British made cars

Not 100E. 300E

[@soberholic5483]

In case of Thames, yes, Nick. But Escort and Squire are 100E's.

Terrible outdated wheezy old engines even back in the 50s
