1934 Austin 7 Speedex Special
Jem Marsh is, of course, the man behind that great British sports car, the Marcos
But during the late 1950’s, Jem used to race an Austin Seven special while working as a sales rep for Firestone Tyres
During the first few months of 1958, Jem was employed by Robin Read as manager of his Dante Engineering Company
This lasted until 30th April, when Jem told Robin that he intended to leave and start his own Company, Speedex
Change of ownership was done when I closed my business and put it into my name. I have owned the car since 2020
216 XUC was first 01/01/1934, the V5 states first reg in the U.K. 01/02/2007. Perhaps she was repatriated to the U.K.? However, she still retains Historic Status and is both tax and MOT exempt
The upper body is aluminium with steel cycle-style mud guards
Under the bonnet, you can see she is fitted with the Speedex flat head, clearly stamped, and is all in nice, complete condition
She is also fitted with the Popular Morris hydraulic brake upgrade
She is a very pretty car and presents herself very well with a wonderful interior and polished alloy dash
216XUC has spent the last 6 years on display in a small East Yorkshire museum!
It has been noted that the rear brake cylinders have lost fluid, so this will need to be addressed. Also, the engine turns over fine, but it currently will not start! Possibly just fuel and a little tinkering will get her running again
So, overall, a fabulous car for the Austin 7 enthusiast, won’t take much to put her back on the road
Hope all this info helps, and she finds a new happy owner
