The Gold Cup Classic & Performance Car Auction
1933 Austin 10/4 Saloon
***NO RESERVE*** An older restoration complete with original buff log book and desirable period features
Registration - OC 3698
Chassis No. - G22722
M.O.T. - Exempt
Odometer - 98,000
This handsome 1933 Austin 10/4 Saloon is finished in red over black with a contemporary deep red leather interior (and matching plush carpet mats). The vendor describes it as an older restoration, complete with original buff log book along with the current V5, along with some historic paperwork. ‘OC3 698’ shows good oil pressure, and “runs and drives well”. Engine, transmission, electrics, bodywork, paintwork and interior are all said to be in ‘good’ condition. The odometer of this early Austin 10/4 reads 98,000 miles and the UK-registered car is MOT exempt. Period features such as the Lucan Trafficators are a desirable touch.
The Austin 10 was the Longbridge firm’s best-selling car of the 1930s. It was introduced in spring 1932 and remained in production for 15 years, including during World War II, where pick-up and van versions were popular. The four-door saloon 10/4 was the core model, but there were also tourers, sports and cabriolets, all sharing the same ladder chassis and 1,125cc side-valve four-cylinder engine. Well received by period commentators, the Austin 10 was enhanced throughout its life, including the launch of a new body for 1937, and the adoption of semi-unitary construction in 1939. The Austin 10 was eventually replaced by the famous Austin A40 in 1947.
In summary:
- Early Austin 10/4 Saloon in handsome colour combination
- Plenty of historical service invoices
- Described as being in ‘good’ condition throughout
