Austin A40 Devon Ute.
More information on this Austin:
Spotted in an scrapyard in Australia is this really rare Austin Devon Utility. It deserves to be dragged out and restored but chances of that happening are slim! Ta to David for this photo.
This section of oldclassiccar is full of photographs showing a mix of unrestored, derelict, abandoned, and scrapped old cars. Some cars are with enthusiasts awaiting restoration, others are dumped or seen in breakers yards. I don't have any more information on the classic Austin above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular A40 Devon Ute would be much appreciated.
All the photos, including this picture of an old Austin A40 Devon Ute, are shown as a reminder of how old cars go to look once past their first flush of youth. Some of the scrapyards in this archive no longer exist, others perhaps survive but don't allow you to walk around them. And those that you can still get in probably don't have many classics in them any more. For more photos like this one of the A40 Devon Ute, and similar old Austins, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
