Greetings! New owner from India

[Hugh Barnes]

Prithvi - there a number of suppliers in the UK of all your needs. The two main suppliers are:

The Austin Seven Workshop - https://www.theaustinsevenworkshop.com/

and

Austin 7 Components - https://www.a7c.co.uk/

Tony Betts at Seven County Austins also supplies some new parts but also has stocks of second hand parts that may be relevant when you work on the car

http://www.7ca.co.uk/

There are other suppliers as well, though I think it fair to say these are the main ones.

One thing I do suggest you purchase is the Doug Woodrow Austin 7 Workshop Manual. Dont be tempted by ones on Ebay, they are overpriced. They can be sourced directly from Mercury Vintage Services, Rosedale, Station Road, Emneth, Norfolk PE14 8DLm but I think it is also available from the suppliers I mentioned above.

I think I will be speaking for the vast majority of us when I say I am delighted that you have decided to restore the car as is. Frankly, it will be an easier task that trying to create an Ulster 'look alike' You will always get plenty of advice and encouragement here and I look forward to watching progress...
