Manufacturer description

In real life, one of the Austin Seven RN variants came in the shape of a van, a converted RN saloon but an invaluable and popular small commercial vehicle in its time. A two-seater, the rear section was stripped out to take whatever deliveries were the order of the day. The front was very basic and the two bucket seats look a bit uncomfortable although they were undoubtedly leather. This Austin RN Van replica is decorated in a primrose body colour with contrasting black roof and chassis. Registered JC 655, it comes completely plain on the sides with two silvered windows on the rear doors. A black coachline extends centrally from the front doors along the length of the bonnet side and all other exterior trim including wheels, running boards, exhaust and headlights is finished in black. The windscreen wipers, door handles and wheel inserts are highlighted in silver. Inside the van, the dashboard is also finished in a primrose colour scheme, the door trim is brown and the remaining interior is black.
