1955 AUSTIN FX3 LONDON TAXI HERE IS A RARE CAR FOR THE COLLECTION. GREAT CONVERSATION PIECE. GOOD WAY TO PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS OR LINE UP PHOTO SHOOTS. EVERY YOU STOP COUNT ON EVERYONE TAKING THE TIME TO TALK. THE CAR AT SOME POINT HAS BEEN PAINTED. THIS CAR IS VERY SOLID AND A GREAT PLAT FORM TO WORK WITH. EVEN DOWN TO THE FLOOR UNDER THE BATTERY WHICH IS ALWAYS THE FIRST TO ROT OUT BUT THERE IS NOTHING AND IS SOLID. NEEDS A COMPLETE RESTORE TO BE A MUSEUM PIECE. THEY MADE THIS BODY STYLE FROM 48 TO 58 WITH A LIMITED PRODUCTION, EVEN FEWER MADE THE TRIP TO THE STATES. THE FX3 REPLACE THE FX2 WITH A MORE POWERFUL 2.2 LITER GAS AND UPDATED CHASSIS. IN 54 THE DIESEL BECAME STANDARD SO THIS IS EVEN MORE SO A BIT MORE SCARCE. THE CAR RUNS PRETTY GOOD BUT AGAIN WILL NEED A COMPLETE SERVICE AND FLUID CHECK IS RECOMMENDED.
