I have been thinking about the front suspension & disc brakes on the GSM, & instead of trying to find Consul 315 bits, I wonder if you have any idea if there are hubs & discs that will fit the 1959 Anglia (100E) spindles? I may have told you the hubs/discs on there now are Cortina & have necessitated spacers made of bits of water pipe & homemade washers! The joys of former farmer owners! I realize how lucky we are here to have a choice of about 45 major parts stores within 5 miles' radius. Yet not one of them has a single part for an English Ford!

I am sure many Anglias & other specials using Anglia bits must have been converted to discs as well.

Is there a poly bushing kit for the 100E front suspension? Present bushings are all shot.

Meanwhile, 2 friends & I went to Lime Rock (a really beautiful 1.5 mile road track in NW Connecticut) last Friday. I didn't have a car, but my friends did & they are fully addicted. There were 4 half-hour track sessions & 2 classroom sessions. A really good value and very well run.

Hope you are all doing well with your own cars as your Spring gets underway. We are entering our Winter Project season!

All best,
Rodger.
