Unknown Herbert Austin’s products are known worldwide and the Heavy 12/4 was just about the hardest wearing car ever built. With owning an Austin you become part of one of the most important British motor companies and an owner has the knowledge of having a great spares back-up from the Vintage Austin Register with nearly every mechanical part available off the shelf. This 12/4 has been in current ownership for 38 years and it has been dry stored for that period. It has rather unusual coachwork, which could have been designed as a special, and could be restored as such again. Some work has already been carried out including the block which has been re-bored to +40. New pistons, rings, valve guides, springs, cotters and a head gasket are sold with the car. There is also a reconditioned magneto and a new windscreen in the kit of parts. Most of the main components appear present. There are no documents available with this car. Estimate: £2,000 – 4,000
