1930 Austin Seven Chummy

Ex Roger Collings family Chummy; well sorted and freshly serviced by Brewster Mudie; full weather equipment; recent pistons and lightly tweaked....

Another one of Brightwells' success stories, this fine little Chummy was sold by us in 2015 having lived in Ireland for many years.

Its new owner, by now well into his late '80s,  UK registered the car which had previously been living with a well-known Irish collector. He enjoyed it for six months or so having spent over £1,000 on a full brake overhaul, a new horn and wiper motor. With Austin ownership out of his system, it was passed to the family of ex-VSCC President Roger Collings. It has been a familiar sight in and around Presteigne ever since.

During their ownership, the engine has been overhauled, including new pistons and a fresh clutch fitted in October 2020. It had a new steering arm in 2018 (a very good thing) and has had the inlet manifold bored out, carb rejetted and a head-skim - and goes well by all accounts.

Ideal for class 1a in VSCC trials, or any other VSCC event as it happens, it comes with a hood and full side-screens and has come to us directly from Brewster Mudie who have given it a service and a once-over prior to the sale.
