This green Austin Open Tourer retains its original chassis, engine and running gear.
Its known history begins in 1979, when it was purchased in Devon as a dismantled project, having been off the road for many years.
It was then professionally restored in 1983, and in 2017 it received a professional respray, together with the addition of trafficators.
The car was bought by the vendor in 2023, and we're told it has been barn stored but used every summer for local trips.
It's described as “running and driving very well – ready to be enjoyed”.
The odometer shows 2024 miles.
It comes with various maintenance receipts from the last few decades, correspondences and sales receipts, spare key, original handbook, and a catalogue from a Bonhams auction which featured this car in 2011.
The car was re-registered in 1983, and the V5C indicates 4 registered keepers since then.
