This is my little Austin A30 from 1955 which I have restored in 2010 with the help of a lot of people including Erik, Hans and Bas (you can find more on this restoration here) I have driven it as a daily car but I am happy to say that I can now leave it standing when the weather isn't that good. Furthermore I have modified it a bit, to make it more safe to drive. The modifications include: seatbelts, A35 style turn indicators, 850cc engine, window mounted radio antenna, Minilight styled rims and the latest addition are front disk brakes.
