1930 Budd Austin 7 Saloon

[Mike Costigan]

David Howe has pointed out that Budd also had a share in the Ambi-Budd company that were already supplying bodies for Dixi/BMW, so there was already a link with Austin, albeit somewhat remote. I think this was an attempt by the Philadelphia company to expand their sales, perhaps at the expense of any approaches from the Berlin company!.
