Ford Anglia 1966 Beige/Grey & White *** STOLEN ***

#1 Post by sjmitchell »

Hi,

I am hoping you can help - I am desperate. My Ford Anglia has been stolen from a garage in Wokingham, Berkshire. My mechanic is convinced it will be resprayed, its identity changed and it will be resold or shipped overseas. I need to spread the word to as many car enthusiasts, restorers and resprayers as possible in the hope that someone has seen my car - reg OJH 480D, 1966, 105E, beige/grey with white roof, red interior. I would just like to get the car back as it means so much to me. Please help.

Thank you for your time,
Sandra

I wish you all the luck in the world, but I really don't see it being resprayed & shipped... Not when there's such a brisk market in breaking. :(
…that's why Allegro will look as good 5 years from now as it does today.

Really hope we can get some leads - i recently discovered that someone had tried to steal one of my cars from a lock up - only a sturdy steering wheel lock prevented them from doing so.

Hopefully they will jog someone's memory. (that's condensation along the side in the last picture)

That is quite a distinctive example of the type, let us hope that someone sees it somewhere, fingers are crossed for you. :(

Sandra - It may well be a good idea to contact the auction houses that undertake classic car sales - certainly H & H http://www.classic-auctions.com/ - were very helpful when a fellow Jowett club member had his car stolen - they listed the details on their website - it would be worth getting touch with the others - if you need links to the sites just let me know.

Unfortunately your car is also just right the one of the historic racing series - so keep a keen eye out for a new car matching the description of yours surfacing within this type of racing.
1937 Jowett 8 - Project - in less pieces than the Jupiter
1943 Jowett Stationary Engine
1952 Jowett Jupiter - In lots of peices http://Jowett.org/
1952 Jowett Javelin - Largely original
1973 Rover P6 V8 - Original / 22,000 miles
