Testimony Films is making a documentary for BBC celebrating the cult classic British Ford cars made at Dagenham. From the Anglia and the Capri to the Zodiac and the Zephyr, Ford brought the American Dream to the UK, changing the way we drove. Their appeal was universal – rebel teenagers relished their rock and roll style, families adored the spacious interiors for holidays on the open road, Ford even designed a special model for the police force. They became the quintessential cars for every generation.

We would love to hear how your Ford car changed your life; perhaps you have memories of incredible journeys, perhaps you have an unusual car or maybe you found romance on the road. If you, your partner or your family owned a Ford car or worked at Dagenham in the 50s 60s 70s or 80s and have interesting stories to tell, photographs or home movies of you and your car during these decades, then please contact: Emily Sivyer or Pete Vance on 0117 925 8589, e-mail pete.vance@testimonyfilms.com or write to FORD APPEAL, 12 Great George Street, Bristol, BS1 5RH.
