About this car

A 1928 Austin 7 Chummy, the open two-seater-plus tourer that put much of Britain on the road in the 1920s. Being a 1928 car, it is eligible for VSCC events.

This example came from an estate sale and carries over £21,000 of recent restoration invoices, on top of an £8,000 purchase cost. The engine bay has been fully rebuilt, and five new tyres have covered fewer than 50 miles since fitting.

It is finished in red over a black interior, with a new black double duck hood and a hood bag for when it is folded down. A list of works carried out accompanies the car. The listing shows it as sold.
