I need some advice. I ran across an Austin America at an autobody shop. The owner told me that a customer towed it in several years ago. When he got to the shop he noticed that he had burned up the

I know nothing about Austin Americans other than some 6 cylinder Austin models have the same engine and BW auto as the C - I think this a Type 65 or Type 66 Borg Warner Auto transmission. * IF * this

Not likely Austin Americas are Front Wheel Drive. Not sure whose transmission is used although they did favor BW. I sort of doubt Leland would develop their own auto but you never know.

The America used basically the same running gear/engine as the Mini. Ie. transverse mounted "A" series engine. I believe the Auto tranny was unique to the America and it's badge engineered siblings.

OK, fair enough. But I'm certain that I've read that some Austins have the same drive train as a C. Anyone know which Austin's these are? BTW, after a bit of looking, the C has a type 35 BW auto tran

The Morris Minor 1100 which was the same basic car as the Austin America had a transverse mounted engine with the transmission incorporated in the engine oil pan as an integral unit. The transmission

(Minor) correction: The car you're referring to is a Morris 1100 but NOT a Morris Minor. The latter ALWAYS had a fore-and-aft power unit while the Austin/Morris 1100 was an enlarged car patterned aft

The first car I owned was a 1953 Dodge with the 241cid Hemi V-8. The transmission was of the "semi-automatic" variety. Two speeds, a clutch and a fluid coupling. The Tranny used engine oil which was

It seems very likely, from what various people have said, that the Austin America was very similar to the Austin, GT, Morris, MG, Riley Wolsely 1100/1300 which were in production, in various differen
