The Austin Seven Swallow is arguably the first Jaguar produced as it was designed, styled and built by William Lyons & William Walmsley at the Swallow Coachbuilding Company before it became Jaguar Cars shortly after World War II. Production of their stylish sidecars began in the workshops of their Swallow Motor Company, whilst, at the same time, Sir Herbert Austin launched the cheap and simple ‘Seven’ model to compete with the light cycle cars of the period. An association was formed between Austin and the Swallow Sidecar Company and, although somewhat at arms’ length, each firm benefitted from the association with the Swallow coachwork giving the Seven a fashionable air that wasn’t available in house at Austin.
GV611 is totally complete with a fantastic history file.
A lovely addition to any Jaguar Collection or Austin Enthusiast
