Austin A40 Somerset dhc Photo.


Somersets never really set the world on fire but provided a sturdy and dependable set of wheels to the 50s motorist. Those wanting to cut a bit of a dash could opt for the drophead coupe version. These A40s were fairly unusual even in the 50s and today are very thin on the ground. Power comes from a 1200cc BMC engine with a column gearchange. Alongside is a Sports model.

Several thousand photographs are shown in the old car galleries at oldclassiccar. The Austin A40 Somerset dhc above is one of 120 images in the Miscellaneous Photographs Set 4 archive, you can see the remaining photos in this set here. A full index of all the photographs is on the main cars, vans and lorries photo section.

Most of the images in this set were taken by myself here in the UK, and some sent in by visitors to the site from Australia, America, Sweden and The Netherlands! If the A40 Somerset dhc shown here is yours, it'd be great to include some more information about it on this page if possible! I'm always on the lookout for photographs of cars that don't yet feature in the transport photos section, so if you have any photos to share, perhaps of other Austins, or different styles of A40 Somerset dhcs, then by all means drop me a line, it'd be great to hear from you and see your pictures.
