The Austin A40 Devon and Dorset were manufactured by Austin from 1947 to 1952, but the van and pickup derivatives were built until 1957 to be replaced with the A55 Van and Pickup, so this is the predecessor of our own Austin Half ton pickup. The artwork in this brochure is beautiful and the cars look very smart in these delicate colours. Not at all workmanlike.
A random selection of posts about travel and tinkering with mechanical machines. Mostly cars from 1937 to 1999, manufactured in English speaking parts of the world, but also kayaks and sewing machines. So here you can see how we travel, drive, paddle, break fix and find on a regular basis. On a desktop, you can choose your favourite item from the list on the right, choose a page from the menu or simply scroll down to see the latest.
