Gaz6002 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Does anyone have any information or pictures about Austin Sevens they'd like to share with me? I'm rapidly becoming a bit of a bore about them and I'm looking for anything I can find out... I know there's a few on here who like their classics so thought I'd chance my arm and see what pops up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L18msy Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Try giving Joiner 91 a pm, i know him and his old man are into old Austins, i think they have a few Ruby's iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross C Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Cheers Liam, your bump made me catch the thread Hey Gaz. My family set up the West of Scotland Austin 7 club 40 years ago and are still going strong today. Ive got a 1935 Ruby fresh from the bodyshop last summer and my parents have a 1929 Chummy and a 1937 Opel. They are great fun to have and tinker with although the Supra has taken all my attention recently. What would you like to know about them? I can give you a good number of photos and my dad can talk you to death if you want to get technical about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Ask Danny Hopkins of PC if you can come down to the workshop and have a look at the Ruby that's in there. I was having a poke around it today, quite fancy one myself for going to the pub in in the summer There's something so charming about them isn't there!

It's reg OV 1265 - some pictures of it competing pre-war here: http://www.austinharris.co.uk/registration/ov-1265 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
