1125cc. This highly original Austin 10/4 Deluxe Saloon 21HP is a ‘chrome radiator’ model, still fitted with its original leather interior. Highlights include hand-painted coachlines, Wilmot Breeden spare wheel cover, original Pytchley sunroof and rear blind. 

We're told this is a matching-numbers car (chassis G41198, engine 1G41416) and it comes with a good history folder. The Austin was first registered in Bradford on 5th July 1934, bearing the same registration number it carries today. The latest owner has had the car for 16 years, and only four former keepers are recorded. According to a note by a previous owner, printed in 2011, the car stayed with its first owner for 39 years until her death. A note from 2011 reveals that, at that time, it was believed the car had never received anything more than routine maintenance. Today the odometer is showing 622 miles.

Paperwork includes a large collection of Austin Ten Club magazines, various booklets, technical information, a maintenance manual, old tax discs and MoT certificates, and sundry receipts from the current owner's 16-year tenure. A box of spares is also included.
