Next on my for sale list is my Austin 1071 s
v5c and heritage certificate in my name , built 8th Jan 1964 and despatched 9th Jan 1964 to Dealer " Cornelius parish ltd, Kingston upon hull "
just 5 former keepers
This has spent pretty much all its life as a road rally car with proof to back this up, car was owned and rallied by Walter figg and Dave wormsley during the period of mid 60s to 1986 where it was sold in motoring news to Southampton area . it was brought by myself in Bolton late 2019 .
rallies and information I have found so far are
- 1968 / 69 completed in motoring news rally championship ( illuminations rally results all recorded in Memory lanes rally book including registration )
- 1971 SD34 road rally champions
- 1976 south rally winners
- 1977 mini miglia rally entry recorded with registration
I have a photo of the car on a night rally event
I have lots of original copy fia and dealer letters. explaining the use for the 1071 cooper s
this is the information I have found so far, but I am in contact with Walters son and he tells me he's lots of photos and other information which he is getting together for me.
the car its self is well rally used and possibly not the original shell not sure ? but has had a lot of shall we say questionable repairs
its fitted with a 1275 s motor as that's what they used in the rally years , but I have sourced the correct, perfect en40 1071 crank / 151 block / 190 gearbox casing. so all the correct parts are they and you sort of get 2 s engines with it .
- new newton commercial, dove grey interior panel kit
I was going to restore it back to its former rally glory as this is how its spent its life .
it would be a very worthwhile project to do you can either go rally or back to standard spec all the hard to find bits come with it
DEPOSIT NOW TAKEN
cheers for looking

5) Items listed for sale should WHEREVER POSSIBLE* be offered with a purchase price, not asking for bids from members. If you wish to auction your item to the highest bidder I would suggest you use ebay & pay the associated fees.
6) This section is offered as a free service to enthusiasts. Any deals made are between the buyer & seller only.

It would be much appreciated if sellers could leave the sale price on adverts after the item has been sold. This acts as a good measure of current value for other sellers.
