Austin 7 Swallow.
GN 1650 is a Swallow-bodied Austin 7 of the early 1930s. Under the skin the Swallow featured Austin 7hp running gear. The 2 seaters were available as either a fixed head coupe or a soft-top. Both were designed by William Lyons who went on to form Jaguar Cars. His idea with the Swallow was to build a quality small car using readily-available mechanicals.

Several thousand photos feature in the various galleries here at oldclassiccar. If you're interested in Austins, whether just the 7 Swallow shown here, or other models in addition to 7 Swallows, then it is worth looking at the other photos in this set of 135 motoring images, and also on the main photos page where details of all the image collections are held.
Most of the photographs in this set were taken during 2007, either at shows, road runs or in museums. A small number were also sent over to me by visitors to this site, for which I'm very grateful. If you have a photograph that you've taken, showing a vehicle that doesn't yet feature on this site, it'd be great to see it. If you own an example of Austin 7 Swallow and would like to see it featured in the Your Cars elsewhere on the site, then by all means get in touch too!
