When production of the older Ford Anglia and Ford Prefect stopped in 1953 the Popular was developed as a budget alternative.
The Popular was based on the old, prewar-style E494A Anglia.
Costing under £400 including tax, it was the lowest price car around.
With a top speed was around 60 mph with a fuel consumption of around 36 mpg. It was powered by a Ford Sidevalve 1172 cc, 30 bhp, four cylinder engine. It had a single vacuum powered wiper, no heater, vinyl trim and very little chrome.
Over 150,000 Ford Populars were made.
