Back in the Sixties the local Austin Dealer had a couple of similar Austin pedal cars as display items in the window. A source of much fascination to us kids

Ahhh pedal version of the A40 Devon. I had a '53 A40 Somerset - always needed the streering ball joints adjusted & greased & the head gasket changing every 3000 miles - could do it in 90 mins......Those were the days...............

Hi Brian,
I have not seen one of these for years, goodness knows how much one of these in that new condition would fetch now at an Auction,
Thanks for the link.

You're more than welcome, Roger.
She's a beautiful little pedal car isn't she?
