1928 Austin Seven chassis with engine
Registration no. JK 72
Chassis no. C/74333
Engine no. M/74616
Assembled from parts, this Austin Seven rolling chassis complete with engine, gearbox, transmission and 'sports' front axle has been restored to a standard commensurate with its prominent display in the BMIHT Museum collection. Indeed, for several years it has been one of the first sights to greet the visitor on entering the main hall. The Museum acquired the components from a private owner in Scotland in 1992. Prospective purchasers should be aware that the registration number 'JK 72' has lapsed on the DVLA computer, but may be recoverable. The vehicle is offered without documentation.
