Extracts from
Vols 1 – 13
1927 – 39
7hp Models
These
articles are taken from a book of extracts. The pages were in sequence in a
bound volume but have the page numbers of the original sections as issued at
intervals over the years. There is no indication as the date of publication or
by whom; however the original copyright is with the Austin Motor Co. Ltd.
The Service Journal
consisted of articles covering all models of Austins in production at that time
as the servicing techniques were often the same. There were also many pages of
revised part numbers, special tools, and short updates of how a task should be
undertaken by mechanics. These have very little, or no, relevance to the
present day diy
enthusiast and so have not been reproduced here.
The articles
have been selected for their detailed information on how to do the task. They are in chronological order of publication with the month/year
on the pages to enable the reader to ensure that it is relevant to their model.
Some pages
refer to page numbers of a previous article; these are in the original full
edition of the Journal and have not been included in the Extracts from which
these articles have been taken; therefore, they cannot be included or
cross-referenced. As far as possible links are given to other articles on
the same topic on this website.
All pages
have been scanned at 600dpi and can be copied onto a blank page in MS Word or
Publisher and made to fit the page for your own use. Unfortunately some of the
pages in the Extracts were of poor quality and the reproduction here is the best
which can be achieved.
Please
note that references to firm’s
names and addresses, and many specified products, are now completely out of
date.
