SUMMARY
An older restoration, this second-generation early sixties A 55 Pick-up would be great for County Shows or could even be used as intended.
DESCRIPTION
- In 1957 Austin introduced the Half-Ton commercial version of their A55 Cambridge saloon in either Van or Pick-up form as seen here
- Powered by the venerable B-Series engine although with a higher compression ratio than its A50 predecessor, rated at 51bhp when new
- Presented here is a 1962 example, believed to be a post-facelift model with a re-styled front end, chrome side mouldings, and 14" wheels
- We understand that the vehicle was subject to a restoration by the previous owner some 20 years ago
- We welcome your inspection of this delightful Austin ‘½ ton Pick-up’
