Chassis No:A/RR270344
MOT:Exempt
- Supplied new with smoking hatch and opening screen
- Said to be refurbished
- Part of a deceased estate
Adored by the British public, the Seven remained in production from 1922 until 1939, during which time some 290,000 were produced. It was also manufactured under licence in France, Germany, Japan, America and Australia. Many examples have subsequently been plundered by special builders (Colin Chapman's first Lotus was based on an Austin Seven) or run into the ground. The remaining cars are therefore an increasingly vital element of the vintage movement. Introduced in 1934, the Ruby variant was an addition to the existing Saloon line-up, whose distinguishing features were a longer bonnet, cowled radiator and downswept tail incorporating an enclosed spare wheel. This very pretty 1936 example is finished in Green over Black and trimmed in Brown leather. The subject of a thorough restoration at some stage, it is considered by the vendor to have 'excellent' engine, transmission, paintwork and interior trim and 'very good' bodywork. 'EG 3789' comes complete with opening windscreen and smoking hatch.
