The A 70 Hereford replaced the Hampshire in 1950 and was wider
and slightly longer with an extra three inches in the
wheelbase.
A new addition to the saloon and estate models was
a two-door convertible with coachwork by Carbodies of Coventry. The
interior of this rather plush workhorse was the same as the saloon. br/>with a large split-bench seat. and full instrumentation set in the
middle for easy completion whether for left or righthand
drive.
Originally imported from Australia as a good solid car with some
25. 00 miles on the clock. the previous owner decided to undertake
a full and breathtaking restoration with this desirable Austin
pick-up. Somewhat of an enthusiast. the owner at the time
completely stripped the pick-up and had it bare metal re-sprayed by
H& R Motors. Darlington. in the very original colour scheme you
see here. The restoration then continued including completely new
interior and carpets. re-chroming. new window rubbers and engine
mountings. much of which needed to be sourced from Australia and
Canada. along with a full engine service and refresh to match the
quality of the rest of the build. Testament to the quality of the
workmanship. the solid ash back runners in the pick-up bed is a
masterpiece of joinery alone and it would be no surprise to hear
the re-build took some three years to complete and. once finished. br/>Classic van and Pick-up magazine featured the A 70 which can be
found in the July 2013 edition.
Offered with a valid Mo T test certificate and V 5 registration
document this is a unique opportunity to own a fabulous restoration
of a very popular Pick-up that has had a huge amount of money and
man hours spent in order to achieve this result.
