For those partial to them this one looks a very nice example.

| I didn't realise that the A40 went back to 1952??!! How did Ford manage to compete in those days? |

I think that must be a typo - the Somerset was in production in '52.

There's one around here that I see from time to time that has flared wheelarches. I'm not sure why anybody thought that this was a good idea, because it isn't. It looks really odd. The rest of it looks fine, but improving on Farina styling is difficult.

Looks nice but quite a mixture of MkI and MkII. 
I think it should say 62 rather than 52 as they were produced till 58!
