The seller is willing to carry out any work or changes that a buyer might desire to suit his or her requirements at cost, provided the vehicle exceeds the reserve price. To replicate the type of work that has been carried out would probably cost in excess of 20,000 pounds.
Over a period of years I have collected a large amount of NOS (New old stock items) For this car I purchased a collection of new original components which had taken over 50 years to collect.
Main reason I am selling is to fund the restoration of another 5 pre 1935 Austin cars (3 sevens)
The photos include some images of the actual restoration work being carried out.
