This print by Chris McEvoy showcases the CJ12 1033 Austin 7 racer, a true icon of British automotive history. Originally introduced in July 1922 as an affordable family car, the Austin 7 quickly gained popularity due to its low tax category and official horsepower designation of 7. However, through ingenious engineering, this little powerhouse soon exceeded expectations with its actual power reaching an impressive 10.5hp from its four-cylinder, 747cc engine. The photograph was taken at the Goodwood Revival event held at the historic Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex. This annual celebration pays homage to classic cars and motorsport heritage while providing thrilling circuit racing entertainment for enthusiasts and spectators alike. In September 2022, during the centenary celebration of the Austin 7's introduction, this stunning image captures not only the beauty of this iconic vehicle but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The retro design and timeless appeal make it clear why these historic cars continue to captivate motor racing enthusiasts today. With its vibrant colors and dynamic composition against the backdrop of Goodwood's picturesque surroundings, this print is a testament to both Chris McEvoy's skillful photography and his passion for preserving automotive history. It serves as a reminder that even after a century since its inception, the Austin 7 still holds immense allure as one of Britain's most beloved sports vehicles.
