Classic Austin 8cwt van.

Virtually a Morris Minor but in this instance badged as an Austin and fitted with the wavy Austin grille. This one was in the concours competition at Tatton. Note the correct plain hubcaps and painted door frames of the commercial variant. Commercial vehicle bonnets didnt have the flying M or side mouldings leading on from those on the doors.

Austin Books Whether for the 8cwt van as shown below, or any other type of Austin, it is worth having a look on Amazon for books, DVDs, Videos etc.

8cwt van on display at Tatton Park, Cheshire.

If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular 8cwt van, or 8cwt vans in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.

Austin 8cwt van that I saw at Tatton in June 05.


I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Austin shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property.

Some vehicles appear at a number of local shows throughout the season, so I've picked my favourite 95 photos from this particular old-car gathering. The other 94 pictures can be found on the main Tatton Park car show page. If I missed your car out, then I apologise! If the 8cwt van featured here is yours then I hope you're pleased to see it featured here. If there were other Austins at the show which I've included in this image gallery, the links will be further down this page.
