More Austin A40 Farina restoration (Pt3) | CLASSIC CAR VLOG

The restoration of the 1960 Austin A40 Farina continues its merry journey in the latest vlog. In this video, a look at some of the crusty rusty areas around the rear of this classic car's 60yr-old bodywork, followed by cutting-disc action and a spot of MIG welding. Look out for classic pedal cars too!
This particular A40 has been in our family from new, it was bought new at Pikes of Exeter, the local Austin/BMC garage, by my great aunt and uncle, and it remained with them in Exmouth until he gave up driving in 1987, at which time it passed to us. I took (and passed) my driving test in the A40 that same year, then drove the Austin as my regular driver for quite a few years, including going to school (6th form - A levels) in it, where it'd regularly appear in the teacher's car park.

More news regarding the old A40's ongoing restoration soon, please check out the previous classic car vlog videos regarding this car and its history.
