First registered on February 28th 1934, chassis E/RN/1078/16 began life in Birmingham (or so its number plate would imply). Bodied as a four-door six-light Carlton Saloon, its 2249cc six-cylinder engine is allied to four-speed manual transmission with the benefit of synchromesh on 3rd and 4th gears. Treated to a bare-metal respray as part of an extensive restoration that is estimated to have cost its last registered keeper, D. Norbury Esq. of Whitefield, some £25,000, the Austin's striking Ivory over Black livery is complemented by Red leather upholstery and matching carpets. Deemed by the vendor to possess "a smooth, quiet engine, lovely gearchange and excellent underside", this smart Post Vintage saloon is offered for sale with copy handbook, sundry restoration photos and fresh MOT certificate.
