Description
Rare and unusual late-Chummy; ready for action; complete with
weather equipment
First registered in June 1933, this AJ Tourer aka
Chummy is somewhat of a rarity. Mass production techniques had perfected
the all-steel saloon body by this time which had brought prices of saloons right
down - motorists soon catching onto draught-free motoring out of the elements.
As a consequence, the open four-seater Austin 7 was not the most common choice
and not many have survived.
Purchased by our vendor just
pre-Covid, she hasn't used it as she had hoped and has decided to pass it onto a
new owner who will enjoy it to the full. Being a slightly later Austin, it has a
number of creature comforts, including a four-speed box with some synchromesh
gears, a more convenient rear petrol tank and a more comodious body.
This
one retains its hood and side screens and has been starting and stopping exactly
as one would expect since its arrival on site.
We don't know a lot more
of its history, but it presents well and has a good interior. Ready for
immediate use, it also looks good value for an open Chummy type
Austin.
