A cool old Austin 3-litre automatic, with matching red leather interior. The Austin 3-litre was the ADO61 (Amalgamated Drawing Office) line; although Morris and Wolseley equivalents were planned, they never made it to production. This vehicle is similar in looks to the Austin 1800 / Austin 2200, but was bigger, with a larger 2,912 cc engine. Production barely lasted 3 1/2 years: late 1967 - early 1971, with relatively few sold. This one was first registered in March 1970. Cool colour: Damask red had BMC colour code RD-29.
