1961 Austin A55 Van
Registration - RFF 258
Chassis No. - A/AV6155663
M.O.T. - Exempt
Odometer - 63,245
The vendor of this charming 1500cc Austin van considers the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and column-change manual gearbox to all be in ‘good’ condition, and it certainly looks to be so. Finished in black over green matched to green upholstery, it has had just three previous owners from new and presently displays a modest total mileage of 63,245. It has benefited from the fitment of many new parts in recent times, including: radiator, battery, tyres and a stainless steel exhaust system. ‘RFF 258’ is now being offered for sale complete with Blaupunkt radio/cassette, auxiliary driving lights, tow hook and comprehensive file containing the original buff log book, handbook and a large selection of receipts for work carried out over the years. A wonderful opportunity for anybody seeking a period promotional vehicle, or race support van for such classic motorsport meetings as the Goodwood Revival.
Half-ton commercials based on the Austin A55 saloon were introduced in 1957, with the van being followed by the options of a pick-up and chassis/cab and chassis/scuttle variants.
In summary:
- Just three previous owners from new
- The recipient of many new parts in recent times
- Great all-round condition for its age
Location of Vehicle - Huntworth, Somerset
