About this car

This is an Austin Seven built as an Ulster-style special, dated to 1931. The Ulster was the sporting version of the Seven in period, and cars built in that mould have long been a staple of vintage club racing and sprinting.

This one was assembled around 30 years ago and has competed in VSCC and 750 Motor Club events. Power comes from a pressure-fed "Pigsty" full race engine, paired with a four-speed gearbox, hydraulic brakes and 15-inch wheels.

A new radiator has been fitted. The car is also on a V5C registration document. No mileage or registration is given.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Only the basic layout is given: the 747cc side-valve 4-cylinder, front engine and rear-wheel drive are well documented. The Ulster came both supercharged and unsupercharged, so power, weight and performance are null because no verifiable factory figures for this variant were found.).

Engine: 747 cc, 4 cylinders
Engine position: Front-engined
