Description
This Austin A40 England, a special car of Abbie Shores grandfather that she has graciously given to me to sell as mine and edit in Edit This 28. I have placed this beautiful black Somerset style automobile in a view atop a high hill where the passengers are left it to walk around the top of the hill with their dogs. The Austin A40 Somerset is an automobile which was produced by the Austin Motor Company from 1952 until 1954. The Somerset replaced the Austin A40 Devon and, as a body-on-frame car, it was comparable in size to its predecessor. The standard Somerset interior contained two close fitting front seats, finished in leather, which could be arranged as a bench seat and a large deeply cushioned rear bench seat which could accommodate three passengers. With a centrally mounted dashboard or instrument panel, Austin incorporated a four speed, plus reverse, gearbox into the car's design which was controlled by a column mounted gear change lever. Four wheel, foot operated hydraulic brakes, and a handbrake operating on the rear wheels only, provided the car's stopping power. Over 173,000 Somersets were sold before it was replaced by the A40 Cambridge in 1954. 7,243 were convertibles.
