Ashley 750 (Austin 7)
Registration No. BUR 143
In May 2014 a message arrived via my contact webpage regards an Ashley 750 sports car lying neglected and unloved in a field full of other derelict vehicles and equipment.
The writer of the message asked if I could confirm the fact that it was an Ashley 750.
After a few emails I received some photo's which confirmed that it was indeed an Ashley 750 albeit having seen better days.
The cars registration is clearly visible, but a check on my Registration Index and the DVLA's online service failed to locate it.
I checked in my UK Registration History Book and found that the registration No. was issued by the Hertford County Council
in June/July 1936.
It obviously missed out on getting transferred to the DVLA's computer system in the mid/late 1970's.
Further emails revealed that the car is minus the windscreen, engine, bonnet and passenger door,
(although it could be hidden under the hardtop).
I'm expecting to hear more about the car soon, will add it to this page as soon as I do.
Should you know this car from it's happier past, maybe you built it or owned it at sometime, please contact me using the contact page indicated below or email me.
