A pair of 1939 Ford Anglia E04A's.
The patriotically named first Ford Anglia, launched soon after Britain declared war on Germany in early September 1939,and given the internal Ford model code of E04A, was a facelifted version of the Ford 7Y, a simple vehicle aimed at the cheap end of the market, with few features. Most were painted Ford black. Styling was typically late-1930s, with an upright radiator, the external spare wheel on the rear identifies it from the later E494A. There were standard and deluxe models, the latter having better instrumentation and, on pre-war models, running boards. Both front and rear suspensions used transverse leaf springs, and the brakes were mechanical.
