My father had a Black one ! WTC635 . He was a Vicar , so wearing Black most of the time . Bought it from A&B motors at Newton Le Willows Happy memories . 22 years tomorrow since he died . Never forgotten!
Bloody hell I had no idea an A35 could go like that, AWESOME!! My dad had a couple of the van types with windows and back seats and they were super reliable and long lived. One of them did 475k
Just a tad quicker than our family A35 that we had back in the early 1970s. Great to see this little car charging up the hill with that snarly engine tone
I put a 1275 plue print twin su carbs set up from a morris marina in a A35 van back in the 80s for a friend 😆 it went like a batt out off hell 😆...thats a nice car well set up for hill climbs 😉...youst to go to a lot off em in the go old days bikes carts cars 😊...hi from ireland...😄
Hello from Australia, I can see from other comments you're running a hot 1275 bored out and midget gearbox with 3.7 LSD. What have you done suspension wise to get it handling this well? Would like to build my A30 into something similar.
@@fsmlittler Yup...many years ago, we built an 1800 for an MGB,, bored, balanced, blueprinted..and we used a big Weber carb, aluminum intake, ported and flowed the head, larger valves. and used an Isky cam and kit. Of course, a tube header was fitted....that thing flat WAILED.....

Beautiful little Baby Austin.
That grey silver metallic is perfect, I always remember them in drab grey or black. What a difference 😃
Ive got so much love for your car. Looks great and really flies... Nicely integrated dash.
A35 , James Hunts favorite London runabout . Apparently he liked its handling and balance and you can see why here. Nice vid
I thought that he had an A40 Farina?

You have a super up engine in that car but thanks for the show
You should have seen them mixing it with Zephyrs, Jags and A95s at Silverstone in the 50sand 60s!
@@royfearn4345 That sounds bonkers!

Yes funny how memory changes things I don’t remember an a35 going that quick
My dad's first car was a (new) Austin A30...1955. Never forgotten. Dad...or the car.
Mine was an A35... but it never went like that.
Likewise, I learned to drive on an A30....how THAT thing brings back memories!
graham w Same situation for me except dad got ours in 58
Only Webbers & Dellortos produce such induction roar👍
Just awesome... beautiful car congrats mate.
Nice A35
Oh what a beauty

I'd believe it...have you ever seen the size of the ports in the cylinder head? QUITE impressive...
That was a surprise.
Love it.
My clear screen
Sounds wonderful -- My first car A-30 countryman
At first, I thought, what nutter did this. Now, I want to be that nutter that did.
Great vid, cracking little car, quick as hell too. A series with webber etc?
Thanks. Full race 1293 on mapped ignition with a single Webber 45.
This would be even funnier if that damn thing didn't handle.. But it does.... And goes pretty well too.... Nice one.
Thanks but honestly the handling is a bit terrifying with chronic bumpsteer!
Impressive !
Wow...I had to check my playback speed but it was set on 'normal''
Totally awesome.
Very cool.

Good ride..i think it burns little bit engine oil, ?
What cracking little cars.
Would be great in production as electric powered car !
What’s the tuning?
Is it a 1275 on twin SU’s?
Maniflow exhaust etc?

Wendy Creaney it’s now an A135......
Like the plumes of oil smoke out the exhaust
Hello, what gearbox is it?
It’s a rebuilt MG Midget 1275 box with a 3 7 limited slip diff

He even pulled the choke out to start it! 😂
My A35 never went like that!
My A35 often never went......... !
Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe ..
The ultimate club car.....I would so love to know its specs😀
1293cc A series with a race cam, very big valve head, single 45 and mapped ignition.
@@fsmlittler😊
But A30s are best !
My parents had an A35. It was fucking despicable.
A lovely older english classic should you be 5 foot zero.
Nice car, wasted in these events.
Matter of value judgement. Ideal hillclimb and sprint car, I'd say.
