About this car

This is an Austin 7 built in the style of the pre-war Ulster racer, effectively a road-registered racing special rather than a factory car. It has an aluminium body, a four-speed gearbox and hydraulic brakes, and rides on 15-inch wheels.

The engine is a Keith Dobson unit that has recently been rebuilt with a Hadley crank and rods, new pistons and rings, a rebore and new bearings. The page describes it as quick, with plenty of racing behind it, including the Circuit des Remparts in France.

It is listed as a 1937 car and is also road registered, so it can be used on the road as well as in competition. No mileage or registration is given.
