ALL Austin Americas sold in the US were 1275s (1300s) Before that they
were MG 1100s (1098s) There may have been a very few Austin 1100s but I
am not aware of any. My father had an 1970 Austin America, it was a nice
car until the hydro-spastic suspenion took a crap so he junked it around
75.
5 years old, that ended his love affair with British cars. He had a Nash
Healey, TR3, TR4A-IRS, and a Sprite which I bought off him (my first)
when he bought the AA. Then he bought a Mopar and once again he tried
small cars, he bought a chevy chovette and once again it was in the junk
yard with 2 payments still owed on it.
