This 1964 Austin A60 Cambridge is offered as a rolling restoration project. Finished in Blue with Cream accents and matching Blue upholstery, it starts, drives and stops, offering a solid basis for refurbishment. With five former keepers, it’s an honest example ready for an enthusiast to take to the next stage.
The car is running and driving, though prospective buyers should expect to undertake cosmetic improvements and possibly some mechanical restorative work to return it to its best. The interior presents as usable but would also benefit from attention in line with the overall project nature of the vehicle.
No accompanying history is included with the car, so its past maintenance and ownership details beyond the V5 information are unknown.
Introduced in October 1961, the updated Cambridge—now named the A60—featured a 1.6-litre B-Series engine producing 61 bhp, shared with the MGA. Styling evolved with reduced rear fins, additional chrome accents and the continuation of the Farina design theme. Improvements included a slightly longer wheelbase, increased track width and anti-roll bars front and rear, enhancing comfort and stability. Popular in period, an impressive 276,534 examples were produced before the model bowed out in 1969.
With Farina-styled Austins gaining more appreciation in the classic marketplace, this A60 represents an accessible entry point for those looking to take on a rewarding restoration project.
