AUSTIN LIGHT 12/6, 13.9/15.9 HP (1935-37)

2-seater, tourer, Ascot saloon.

Final 12/6 with painted radiator shell, synchro on second, and rear boot (full of spare wheel) on saloons, also on 1936 tourers. The '35 open cars retain the old radiator, but they fall into line for '36. Girling brakes on '36s and also on the rare '37s, all open cars with 15.9 engines and steel-spoke wheels. 12/4 using same chassis is a better car.
