Initially based upon the Austin A55 Cambridge, the A60 was characterised by its distinctive mid '50s Cambridge styling, a 1622cc engine and a high roofline, creating a 96 cubic foot load space. The production run was notably long, lasting from 1957 (as an A55) to 1972, years after saloon production ceased, proving to be a successful model due to its practicality.
This example has had a lot spent on it over the years, most recently benefitting from a new radiator and cap due its age, with parts invoices on file. The van is nicely boarded out inside and the interior looks very nice, with all the grained leather-look vinyl looking very fresh and 'as new'. The paintwork presents well, with the red and white colour scheme fitting the van well, along with the British Motoring Corporation stickers, as does all the chrome work.
There is a large history folder for this vehicle, that includes invoices, photos, service history, and MOTs. There are also various manuals: workshop manual; mechanical service parts manual; driver's handbooks; the book of the Austin A50, A55, A60 by Pitman’s Motorists Library. Currently, there is a modern radio in the van, which comes with a remote control, but included in the sale of the vehicle, is the original radio and also some wing mirrors. The vehicle is said to run and drive well, having been driven to the auction venue. This vehicle is also registered as historic, so is tax and MOT exempt. This is a lovely example of a classic commercial van, that is both full of character and is very practical indeed.
