What have you done today with your Austin Seven

Attached image of OM4389 at the start of the Herefordshire run, dwarfed by a rather nice Crossley whilst being admired by the city police.  The Lyons' Chummy just part visible to the left.
Also the "Birth Certificate" - a 1973 photostat copy of the "Declaration for a Licence and Application for the Registration of a MOTOR CAR", signed for by "--Nott?" on behalf of the first owners, the Austin Motor Company themselves.  Hence the Birmingham registration OM.....

Hi Mick

Good to meet, if only briefly, on the Hereford run last Friday.  If you send me a photo and a short write up I can feature OM4389 as a ‘birthday car’ in the Association magazine. (editor@a7ca.org)

Cheers
