I believe the Austin built among other cars lots of the taxis in
London...big, black, sedans with tiny engines and even smaller turning
radii...they can be purchased...in fact one sits a few blocks from
here on used car lot for $5000.00 (1958).

A friend came across an old car he must dispose of. Knows nothing about Brit
cars. Said it is an "Austin of London" according to the badging. Former
owner said only about 150 were made. Does not know age or anything else. I
am going to look at it soon. Can any one help me with info?
