Remspoor Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Never seen a Anglebox van with a chrome grill. Never seen an Anglebox short chrome grill either. Short ones I thought were always painted metal.Watch and learn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercrocker Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ford used the basic Anglia painted grille on the 5 cwt Thames van and that unique short, plated version on the 7 cwt which also had a little extra chrome trim elsewhere. They did a similar thing with the previous 100E-based Thames using the Anglia and Prefect grilles respectively. From 1965 the vans were officially referred to as Anglia vans when Ford began phasing out use of the Thames name on their commercials.

I know cwt is hundredweight, did the 7 have stronger suspension for added weight? One’s too many, ten’s not enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercrocker Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 2cwt is about 100kg so not a huge difference. As far as I know, the 5/7 cwt differed only in rear suspension leaves (can't remember the exact difference leaf-wise) although the 7cwt 100E-based van had heavier shocks I think, maybe the Anglia one did as well. I can't see different market sectors requiring 5cwt and 7cwt versions so I think it was possibly just a way of selling a slightly cheaper van.... brandersnatch and JeeExEll 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
