american austin car company

The American Austin Car Company was a United States automobile manufacturing corporation tied to the British Austin Motor Company. The company was founded in 1929, and produced motorcars from 1930 through 1934, in which year American Austin filed for bankruptcy. Some of the motors and chasis were imported from the UK Austin; the bodies were made at the American Austin factories in Detroit, Michigan and Butler, Pennsylvania. In the 4 years they produced just under 20,000 autos. Most famous was the Bantam one of the first compact cars mass-marketed in the US. Another was the American Austin. In 1935 Roy Evans bought out the bankrupt company, which was reorganized under the name American Bantam. All ties to UK Austin were severed. Production was resumed in 1937 and continued through 1941. The first prototype Jeeps were made by American Bantam. List of automobile manufacturers
