Re: Austin Seven Services...

I got my first Austin Seven in 1957 and as I then lived near Thirsk , John Dalby was my supplier of parts.I hope Chris is OK and still keeps his business open.

Those photos took me right back to the late 70s when I dropped in for bits for my first A7, a Speedex.

Re: Austin Seven Services...

MY RK saloon (late of Northern California) came with an undated 28 page catalogue/ advice booklet from A7 Service of Kirby Wiske....and a parts list from The Seven Workshop (5th edition, temporary extension) and what I think is the price list for same dating from 1991.
Among the invoices was one from A7 Service (Sept 2001) for 4x 18mm plugs (£11.00)& a jet key (£2.50).
This car was sent out in 1992 for a 25 year holiday!

I remember if you wanted a spares catalogue you had to send one shillings worth of postage stamps !
