🇺🇲🤝🇬🇧 Embark on a captivating journey through the history of the American Austin Car Company, a pioneering force in the automotive industry that left an enduring legacy on American roads!

🔍 Founded on February 23, 1929, in Butler, Pennsylvania, the American Austin Car Company Inc. aimed to revolutionize urban mobility during the Great Depression by producing affordable, fuel-efficient vehicles tailored to American drivers' needs. Licensed from the renowned British Austin Motor Company, the company drew inspiration from European compact cars to create its own unique models.

👑 The parent company, Austin Motor Company Limited, established by Herbert Austin in Longbridge in 1905, experienced significant growth during World War I, fulfilling government contracts and expanding its workforce. Despite its illustrious British roots, the American Austin Car Company faced challenges in marketing tiny Austin cars in the US market.

💡 In 1930, the company introduced its first model, the American Austin, featuring a compact design and economical performance that quickly appealed to urban commuters. With its diminutive wheelbase of only 75 inches and track width of 40 inches, the American Austin stood out as one of the smallest production cars in the USA, gaining popularity for its efficiency and agility.

⚙️ The American Austin Car Company's innovative approach to automotive design paved the way for iconic models like the American Austin Coupe and Roadster, renowned for their streamlined silhouettes and nimble handling. Despite initial success, the company faced challenges during the Great Depression, leading to a decline in sales and eventual suspension of production in 1932.

📉 Despite attempts to diversify production, including the introduction of small-scale pickup trucks in 1934, the company struggled to regain momentum. By 1935, the American Austin Car Company was liquidated, with its assets acquired by Evans Operations, Inc. The formation of the American Bantam Car Company in 1936 marked the end of an era for the American Austin brand.

On this day, 23 June 1980, 100 paint sprayers at the British Leyland Longbridge plant in Birmingham walked out on strike after being told that their two tea breaks per day would be shortened and staggered – rather than all workers take them at the same time. The strike spread and completely shut down production at the factory, which was estimated to have cost the firm at least £10 million in lost production of Mini and Allegro cars. After 10 days, unions agreed to accept an element of the troubled company's "recovery plan" regarding breaks in return for BL conducting a study to determine if there were genuine grounds for changing them. It was just one of many disputes as employers, supported by Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government, tried to roll back British workers' hard-won tea break rights. We've produced a range of merch celebrating the struggle for tea breaks to help fund our work.

I forget exactly where this is from, but I think it's originally from C Nepan Longbridge's "The Anatomy of Nelson's Navy."

honestly I wasn’t born to go to university and try to cut out some meager earnings in heritage, I should have been born in the late 50s and ended up working for British Leyland in Longbridge or somewhere else. I probably had bad karma in my last life to end up here.
