Details: Twenty-three Ford Anglia estate cars were added to the numbered LT service vehicle in the 1960s, including 11 that formed the first generation of radio control (or 'inspectors') cars. These wore red livery and a handful have been illustrated in other publications. The remainder all carried grey livery and this is the only known photograph of an example. 1407F was used by the ticket machine works at Effra Road in Brixton and was delicensed in January 1970. It was sold in March and was photographed five days later (on the 21st) apparently still awaiting collection from the storage area behind Fulwell Garage. The Anglia had been supplanted by the larger Escort model at the end of the 1960s. |
