Frame painted

Neglected, abused, rear view

Before and After together

Finished...and Everything works

The American Austin engine with the alumnium crank case and transmission. The cylinder section and cylinder head are cast iron.

Pictured is the engine, and completed frame work. I made a tempory dash board to check the engine operation while test driving the frame by driving it around the neighborhood.

The wood in the body has been replaced by new oak. Dave McDowell cut and shaped all the wood.

The first two cars are 2 door 5 window sedans. The last sedan has 3 windows and a delivery door in the rear. It was owned by Speedway Garage in Redwood City, Ca.

This car was purchased in Cupertino, Ca. in 1968. It arrived home in boxes. With blue poster paint after assembly, it made it to the first PBAC meet in Pasadena, Ca. Note decal in windshield. It showed up with Charlie Mews 1931 Austin roadster in the Redwood City 4th July Parade around the same time.
