Good morning all!

I am looking to buy my first Austin 7, looked at them for ages and now I'm selling my land rover so its time for a new project.

So, whats around? I'm quite happy for it to be a project, I've been working on cars for a few years now and I want to properly re-build a car and the austin seems like the perfect car!

My budget is around £4000, and I'm located in Manchester. I'd love a little convertible but I feel like my budget won't allow that!

Lovely to be a part of the community.

Regards

I don't know whereabouts in Manchester you are Tom, you will be welcome at the Cheshire Sevens which usually meet at 8 pm on the first Tuesday in the month at the Morely Green Social club, Wilmslow Cheshire SK9 5NT. However please note that the August meeting is at the Crown in Goostrey.

My advice; don't buy a kit of parts. You will spend the next 3 to 5 years trying to assemble unmatching bits without the proper info. After advice from your local A7 club get a complete car, in any condition, which you can just about afford on your budget. Don't take it to bits but get it running. Worry about cosmetics and originality only after using it. Best of luck!
