Комментарии продавца про 1929' Austin Austin 7
This car along with 124 others is to be auctioned at our Bonhams MPH 11th December auction, Hanger 113, Bicester Heritage, OX26 5HA.
Odometer reading: TBC MoT expiry date: exempt
- 'Barn find' for restoration
- Off the road since 1970
- Ideal VSCC 'starter car'
A huge success from the moment deliveries commenced in January 1923, the Austin Seven remained in production until 1939. Simply constructed, economical and easily maintained by the home mechanic, the Seven brought motoring within the financial reach of the man in the street, who hitherto would probably have settled for a motorcycle combination. Its introduction helped save the ailing Austin concern and by the mid-1920s the Seven dominated the light car market in Britain. In essence the Seven changed little in the course of its 17 years in production, retaining the 'A'-frame chassis, transverse front spring, rear quarter elliptics, and four-cylinder sidevalve engine to the end. There were, of course, numerous detail improvements along the way, a longer wheelbase, roomier bodies, coupled brakes, and a three-bearing crankshaft to name but four. The sole version available when production commenced was the 'Chummy' tourer; saloon, fabric saloon and coup models, plus a roomier tourer, were on offer by 1929.
A 'barn find', off the road since 1970, this Chummy should be a relatively straightforward restoration project, being all complete, and is the ideal VSCC 'starter car'. The engine turns over, the paintwork is surprising good, and the body appears solid. Sold strictly as viewed.
