1955 Austin A30 Countryman in Original Condition. 11 months MOT, For Sale
In April 2021 the A30 Countryman was discovered by chance in a locked garage in a probate sale in the village of Turnastone, Herefordshire.
With a new battery and fresh fuel, the little car fired straight up, after sitting alone in a locked garage for over 50 years !
The original C41 Dunlop cross ply tyres were replaced with radial tyres, all fluids, plugs / points replaced. All rubber components and all brake shoes were replaced and the although the A30 Countryman drove beautifully using the vacuum hand controls or using conventional foot pedals, the vacuum system has been removed and the car is now as supplied in 1955.
The mileage of 21, 203 is correct with the original 803cc engine and gearbox.
The 66 year old original beige interior is intact and in good condition, apart from some of the original Hardura mat in the drivers footwell is missing.
The Heritage Certificate states the car was supplied without a heater, so the present heater must have been supplied / fitted by the supplying dealer in Ledbury.
Unless sold before, the Austin A30 Countryman will be at Beaulieu on September 4th / 5th. The MOT now runs to 4th July 2022.
