Hi everybody, I have been a member of this forum for some time but have not so far posted, I have been waiting to purchase an Austin seven from a friend of my partner for some time.
Meanwhile as a newbie to the Austin seven scene I have been monitoring the forum and picking up some very valuable information from current and past postings, it looks like this is a very valuable resource for a new Austin seven owner so now that I’ve finally picked up my 1936 Opal (two seater?) I hope you won’t mind too much if I ask some daft questions whilst trying to sort out my new baby.
CXB 773 is very much a project, having resided in a barn in Norfolk since 1991 she is not in tip top condition. I’m hoping my limited skills are up to the challenge of bringing my new pride and joy back to road worthy condition.
I’m attaching a few pictures which I’m hoping may be of interest, any information regarding its originality and background would be greatly appreciated. All I really know about her history is that she was purchased by the previous owners’ mother at an auction at the Suffolk show in 1970.
….. Phil.
