Ford sidevalve Specials Ashley, Buckler, Falcon, Tornado ++ |
 | | The idea was simple, take a dog-eared but mechanically sound Ford Pop, chuck away the remains of its bodywork, and fit instead one of a large number of fibreglass bodies that would drop onto the Pop chassis. |
 | | The fact that many sidevalve Ford (and Austin) specials headed to the racing track, to compete in races held by the 750 Motor Club for instance, only served to fuel the interest in these cars. |
 | | The cream and red car is a Typhoon, sidevalve based, 8hp head twin su's, 4.7 diff and it now has ballamy wheels, this is a totally original car. |
