Featured on Aussie Garage, this incredible custom build combines classic British styling with modern engineering and a serious performance punch thanks to a rare 2.9L 24-valve Cosworth V6 producing around 300 horsepower.

Located in Perth, Western Australia, the vehicle is available for $20,000.

A Classic Ford with a Serious Twist

The Ford Anglia originally left the factory with a tiny 10-horsepower side-valve four-cylinder engine. Fast forward to today and this unique panel van now packs a powerful Cosworth V6 that completely transforms the driving experience.

Ross has owned the vehicle for more than 30 years and has spent countless hours refining and modifying the build. What started life with Toyota Corolla running gear has evolved into a fully engineered custom street machine.

The only original component remaining is essentially the body itself, with almost every aspect of the drivetrain, suspension, steering and braking systems upgraded or custom fabricated.

Rare Cosworth Power

Under the bonnet sits a rare 2.9-litre quad-cam 24-valve Cosworth V6. These engines were never a common sight in Australian custom cars and are particularly unusual to find in a compact vehicle like an Anglia.

With approximately 300 horsepower pushing an 800kg vehicle, performance is more than enough to surprise modern cars.

Highlights include:

• 2.9L Cosworth Quad Cam V6
• Approximately 300HP
• Aftermarket ECU
• Custom radiator setup
• Custom exhaust system
• Ford Type 9 five-speed manual gearbox
• Engine sourced through Race Tune
• Professionally engineered conversion

Ross jokes that the lightweight Anglia can easily break traction and becomes a handful in wet conditions.

Professionally Built Suspension and Chassis

This isn’t simply an engine swap. The vehicle features significant engineering upgrades throughout.

Features include:

• Independent front suspension
• Rack and pinion steering
• Bilstein coilovers
• Narrowed Jaguar rear end
• Four-wheel coilover setup
• Custom front flip nose section
• Fully engineered modifications

Many of the fabrication and suspension upgrades were completed by well-known Western Australian hot rod specialists, helping create a unique and capable package.

Custom Interior

Inside you’ll find a blend of vintage styling and modern convenience.

Features include:

• Original-style Bakelite dashboard
• GPS speedometer
• Custom audio system
• Reverse camera system
• Rear vision camera
• Custom roof console
• SAS bucket seats
• Custom denim interior work underway
• Rat Fink themed touches throughout

The van was originally used by Ross during his years as a mobile DJ, explaining the impressive sound system and spacious rear cargo area.

Honest Description

The vehicle is currently unlicensed and has been in storage for some time.

Ross advises the next owner should budget for:

• Gasket work
• Clutch work
• General recommissioning

However, the car is largely complete and shouldn’t require a major amount of work to get back on the road and through licensing requirements.

For someone looking for a unique hot rod, custom cruiser or show vehicle, this Anglia offers a huge amount of engineering and fabrication work already completed.

A Car with a Story

Beyond the modifications, this Anglia carries an incredible story. Ross has battled cancer multiple times over the years but has remained passionate about cars and hot rodding throughout.

The vehicle reflects decades of ownership, craftsmanship and determination, making it much more than just another custom build.
