1949 Austin
A-90 Atlantic Convertible
Bonhams Greenwich
Concours d'Elegance
June 8, 2008
Left-hand drive. 2,660-cc, 88-hp, inline four-cylinder. Column-shift four-speed manual. White with burgundy leather and tan cloth top. Excellent paint and brightwork, there's no pitting to be found, including on the small bits. BF Goodrich "Long Miler'' tires have some white rubber leaving the whitewalls, but still plenty of tread. The leather burgundy piped with white trim looks more like what you might find on a period Bentley than an Austin. Excellent dash includes fully restored gauge faces. This has to be this planet's best Austin A-90, and now the most expensive as well.
