Description
A very good example of the iconic Austin Seven – everyone has had one, still has one, wants one or will have one during their classic car life (we couldn’t bring ourselves to use the word ‘journey’!!) The car’s current owner has had this lovely RP Box Saloon since 2016 when we sold it to him, in a sound, but ‘needing improvement’ condition. Indeed, since then, he has improved the car no end, to its now very good condition, including a full repaint in one of the favourite colour combinations, black and maroon. He has also carried out any necessary work to the mechanics and to the interior. The underside of the car is very clean and tidy and all the floors have been painted inside the car, together with the dashboard. The engine was fully rebuilt in 2015, along with a new clutch, and recently, the dynamo has been rebuilt. The wire wheels are in good condition with four matching tyres – hardly worn. The car starts easily and runs and drives very well with the correct oil pressure and no overheating. The gearbox, back axle and brakes are all good – this is a very nice-driving Austin Seven. Paperwork includes continuation book from 1976, current V5C and some old invoices.
