DESCRIPTION
1966 Austin Gipsy showing 25,000 kms, with working siren and blue lights!
We are told This Gipsy was used by the Swiss Fire Service between 1966 and 1972 and was put into storage for many years. Registered on a veteran MFK (an 8 year Swiss Test, far more demanding than a standard MFK), it was de-registered in October 2014 and came to the UK earlier this year.
The rear is empty with wooden shelving. Maybe it would make a great catering vehicle, a camper conversion, or left as a historic Fire Vehicle? It has 2 side opening double doors that could be serving hatches and large rear doors.
The vendor informs us that the green seats are in incredible condition. The whole vehicle is unrestored and appears to have had very little wear for a work vehicle. We are told it runs faultlessly and aside from a few touch ins,it retains its factory paintwork.
This Gypsy is supplied with a UK MoT certificate, a UK number plate and is fully UK registered.
