Austin Nippy for Sale-thoughts

sorry ian, beat you to it.

I fully agree with you though.

There are give aways.

With the front axle assembly, yes the steering arm is wrong, and yes aftermarket radius arm ends, but look at the spring. It's not an original sports, or even a good after market copy. So why would the axle beam be original?

So the front is wrong, and the chassis is wrong, so why would we guess the rear end is any different?

There are also some suttle giveaways on the body, if you want to join the dots that is.

When a body is separated from a car, especially for some time. All those little bits get lost.

And when a body is then married back to build a new car, you have to find all those little bits again.

Door latches are not the biggest giveaway, and neither are the wrong seat hinges, (so likely wrong seats). For me it's the access panel at the rear prop. And the handbrake cover being wrong. Start adding them all up though.

Although if I was buying the car for what it is, I would forgive all of that.

What I really don't like is in the right up, with all the little cars falts. It has a suggestion it comes from a car collection. As if to give it provenance? 

And we all know how expensive that word can be. 

Tony.
