1 oil filter AC30A......................................62p
6½ pints super oil.................................£1.10p
1 gallon Shell for petrol consumption test..........36p

My first car was a second-hand Ford Anglia. I saved up and bought it for £70 in 1970.
This one that the parts were for was an Austin A40 and I thought it was very swish. It was second-hand again, but cost me well over £100. :lol:

That was the ideal car for shorthouses like me. That fin at the back was wonderful for reversing.
