1957 Austin London Taxi

Description

Vehicle Details
Up for sale is a 1957 London Taxi that runs, drives and stops like it should. It is still set up as it was when it was in service as a taxi. Still has meter, extinguisher, medallion and top sign. As you can see it is right hand drive and was imported from England to United States around 1960. It has very minimal rust, the worst of it is in the pictures. Each place is not as bad as the pictures look. 1 place is under the battery box and the other two places are above the front side window (very minor) and opposite side above luggage compartment is starting to bubble. The engine runs very well and it is a diesel. Shifts as it should, with a little practice using your left hand to shift it works just fine. All the light lens are intact (which could get pricy if missing) Has good bias ply tires on it. This vehicle is not perfect but it is in pretty good shape for its age and its a real head turner. It very well could be the only one left of this vintage. I have had a hard time finding another. We are pricing it to sell since we have too many projects and business is picking up again so we are back to servicing and repairing our fleet of cars. We are a transportation (taxi and livery) that has been in business for over 100 years. This was purchased with advertising in mind but we have aquired a 1985 London Taxi that is easier for people to operate.Feel free to ask any questions or ask for pictures, videos whatever. It can be seen in person at 176 Cross Road, Waterford, CT. We do NOT have a title for the taxi ( I had to make a chose in the set up so I noted Clean title) We will sell it on a Bill of Sale since it is over 25 years old it is not needed. There are ways of getting a title but we do not have one and have no plans on getting one since we don't need it. I also have an original service manual that will go with the car. This is a fun car to take around town or car shows, draws attention everywhere you go.
