Over £25k has been invested in preparing this yellow Austin A35 to Goodwood ‘Academy’ competition spec, while also keeping it usable in modern traffic. It's powered by a 1275cc Midget engine, which was reconditioned and given a polished & ported head by specialist Peter Burgess, and the gearbox is a Ford Type-9 five-speed unit. The build took place between 2012-2018, and our vendor has provided a long list of works achieved, including:Shell stripped and sprayed in Buttercream YellowStrengthened suspension mountsBonnet louvered with bucklesAcademy-spec front air intakeGlass windows with all new rubber sealsQuick-release fuel capLucas 576 reversing lightArmstrong lever shocksPolybushed front wishbonesFront anti-roll barNew front & rear springsFrogeye Sprite wheelsNew tyres (2025)MG Midget front discsMetro master cylinderMetro servo & pedal boxSU Marina carb4-2-1 sports exhaustSkimmed flywheelAlternatorNew coil & distributorOil catch tankAlloy radiatorKenlowe fanSpin-off oil filterAlloy oil coolerHydraulic clutchReconditioned diffRacing mirrorsCompetition halfshaftsThe interior of the car features a roll cage, with new carpets, headlining, door cards, Ridgard black leather seats, Willans harnesses and Mota Lita steering wheel.
