Pardon my lack of memory. Back in the late 70's or eraly 80's, I saw one of these at a NSRA event. I think it is an English Austin but my memory is so poor about this that I may all wrong.  I suppose if I took the next 2 weeks and looked through photos I might find it. I don't remember alot about it except it had the same wheels.

It's an American Austin, built in Butler Pa. I owned one for a short time in 1966, mine had a V8 60 in it, not stock. I always wanted to have one with a 454 in it.

Its an Austin Bantam.
Like the Fiat Topolino, we hardly recognise them in original form any more.  They were often cut-down for drag cars.

Picture yourself going 80 MPH down the interstate with a 75" wheelbase - pretty scary I think.  That's why I never finished my '38 American Bantam Sedan Delivery and sold it to get my deuce roadster.

I reckon with the right credentials up front (that means engine!) you could get that thing to do wicked wheelstands!
