    Description
AUSTIN FX4 BRITISH TAX - PROJECT CAR or for PARTS - late 1950's - 1960's

PLEASE NOTE that I had to fill in a year on their template so the ad could go through. Below I will explain.

NO MOTOR

History, and DMV information:

I've had this taxi for 9 years. There are NO PAPERS, but there should be no lien interest. I have CA tags that expired in 1990.

Details:

*VIN Number and Year:

one of the last numbers is partially obliterated, and I believe it is either a '3' or a '5,' and that is why I have given the range of years, it shouldn't matter because the car did not change for many years. I know that it is from about 1958 to early 1960's. The characteristic orange 'rabbit ears' on the top sides are what definitely helped determine the range of years;

*lights/lenses, and their chrome housings are there

*wheels are on it, and there is a spare; tires are deteriorated, and it can only be towed on a full trailer

*the dash is ripped apart, but most or all of the gauges are there; some or all wiring is there

*heater unit

*the old fare chart is in it

*partial, but cracked 'Cavern Club' poster is displayed next to it; this is the club the Beatles debuted at, but it does not feature them

*the jump seats, and back seat are in nice condition...there might be one slit on one of them; front seats have some rips

*running boards and both bumpers

*exterior mirrors are there

*interior mostly tan

*headliner is ripped

*all doors, and shut pretty good except the front passenger is a bit difficult, but you can close it

*all windows intact, and in decent shape, including the slider between the front and back; gaskets need replacing; I don't recall seeing any water damage on the interior to indicate water ever got in it

*accomodates 2 batteries; the old ones are there, but they are dead

*some corrosion along the top lip, and bottom edge; according to my research, these areas, especially the top lip where the rain runs along is a typical area of corrosion for all of these vehicles

*floor is intact, and I don't believe there are any holes

*chrome hardware, including the ash trays, and door handles; a bit of pitting, but overall looks decent

*the trunk opens and closes pretty good

*hood is intact, and grill is there; some denting to the grill, but can be pounded out

*back British license is on it, and I have CA personalized plates

*the body id overall in good shape, and may have had

*NO MANUAL

I have MORE PHOTOS if you need them.


Shipping and transportation:

You are fully responsible for making all arrangements in picking this up and/or shipping it in a reasonable amount of time. Please make sure you have a sturdy trailer, or toy hauler, straps, and anything else you will need to secure it. I'VE BEEN GIVEN NOTICE TO REMOVE IT, and MUST DO SO VERY SOON

FINANCIAL TERMS:

I prefer CASH ONLY, but I see they only have accommodations for Pay Pal, and credit cards. Please contact me and we'll discuss. You must have a stellar public record.


Absolutely NO WIRE TRANSFERS.

The vehicle is sold 'AS IS,' and to the best of my knowledge, everything I have stated is correct.

I am a fair and honest person, and I expect the same from you.

The ad is also about to be shortly relisted on Ebay, and you'll be able to see my reputation. Just do a search, and it will come up.
