History of the Austin A99 Westminster
The A99 Westminster debuted in 1959, with a redesigned body Pininfarina. The previous year, Pininfarina redesigned Austin's small A40 and mid-sized A55 Cambridge models. The 2.9 L (2912 cc) C-Series straight-6 engine with dual SU carburettors from the Austin-Healey 3000 was under the hood. When given the Westminster tune-up, the engine generated 103 horsepower. A three-speed all-synchromesh manual transmission with a Borg-Warner overdrive unit was standard, with an optional Borg-Warner automatic transmission. Another new addition was the Lockheed brakes with power assist and 10.75-inch discs on the front.
