1962 Austin A35 Van 45,889 (Not Warranted) £10000 + buyers premium

Description:

This beautiful Austin A35 van has had a mere four previous owners from new and is presented in fantastic condition. Registered in January 1962 this is one of the very last A35 vans produced before Austin introduced the updated body style and did away with the trafficators and the pretty pressed body panels; this change happened in February 1962 on A35 vans. Basically, the pre-Feb 1962 A35 van was an A30 van but with an uprated engine, up from 803cc to 948cc; the best of both worlds. Production on vans ceased in 1968 with a total of well over 100,000 A35 vans having been produced. This van was professionally restored in the late 90’s and was used sparingly since having been kept in dry storage and cherished by the most recent keeper (since 2004), hence the car being probably one of the very best around. The interior is as good as the exterior and the underneath is also absolute top drawer, the van is also fitted with the optional extra folding rear seat. There is some history including with the vehicle including old MOT’s and an old logbook as well as a bill of sale from 1992 when the van changed hands for £2440! There are a few photographs in the history file as well as a couple of Spotlight Magazines; the A30 & A35 owners club magazine.

This van presents an excellent opportunity for the enthusiast or a small business owner looking to promote their trade… or both! Presented for sale in truly excellent condition it could be used for work during the week and participate in shows at the weekend, it really is the complete package.
Interest in small commercial vehicles has been on an upward curve is recent years and shows no sign of abating, whether buying for enjoyment or for investment, there are no signs of this trend slowing down anytime soon especially for good examples… and this beautiful little van is much much better than just good!
