The Vintage Austin Register (V.A.R.) was founded in 1958 as the "Vintage Austin 12/4 Register" by enthusiasts who were keen to record and preserve remaining examples of this well known and much loved car. Such was the survival rate of the Austin Motor Company's "Twelve" that the Register quickly grew and began to accept other models in the Austin range, such as the Austin 20/4, 16/6 and the ubiquitous Austin 7. It soon became apparent that the name of the Register would have to change, to reflect the inclusion of all other Austin models. In 1961 the Register was re-named "The Vintage Austin Register". Please visit this site for details of membership and much more.

Image Contributions

Your contributions are important and welcomed. Each image sent in helps to make the past a little bit clearer.

If sending images please send as large as possible as this helps with cropping and resizing whilst still maintaining a minimum quality of the original. Images between 1000 and 2000 pixels are preferred. Unfortunately we may not be able to use your image if it is too small.

We do not assume copyright of any image sent in but we do reserve the right to use any image to give the best use and effect for Vintage Garage, and to retain that use. We are pleased to give photo credits but some contributors prefer to remain anonymous. We will assume the latter unless you inform us otherwise.

If any images you send in are personal and you wish them to be marked to deter copying then please let us know and we will put a 'Protected' marker on them. This will not prevent copying but will make the image unviable accept for any personal use.

Where possible, please let us have any dates, makers names or model numbers or any other detail which will help to explain your images.

We take this opportunity of saying thanks to all those contributors who have given so generously in the past.
