Description

Great runner and starts well, but there is some work to be done.
Needs a new head gasket (just blew this week) - an easy fix for the right person - new head gasket costs around £35 on Ebay or Austin Store.
Some welding in the chassis also needs attention. Door and side panels could also do with a refill and polish.
I have reflected the above work in the price - very happy for potential serious buyers to come and take a look.

Otherwise... Lots of work has already been done:
Engine has recently been completely stripped and refurbed
New electrics and original renewed brake system
All mechanical parts original
Original leather seating (need a little attention)
Spare gear box and spare front bonnet included
All chromes included
Current signage is vinyl-based and can easily be removed
Bought a year ago from a private Austin enthusiast - Comes with original police lightWe bought "Nom Nom" as a great addition to help promote our children's science parties due to it's quirky, timeless appeal. It has certainly turned heads and been of great interest on social platforms!
