1924 Sports

[Bill Sheehan]

Thanks for that, David.

I am also alerted to the Pram Hood Register article in grey mag 2016C (David and Phil Baildon I think) so look there, anyone else that is interested...

A query that arose from that exchange: "Were any built on a chassis with 7 inch brakes? These were introduced in September 1926 and at that time the model was, I believe, still being listed for sale."

Jon - My guess, probably not.  Although my car had the chassis repaired/altered to compete in the first Australian Grand Prix (1928), & it had 7" brakes and wheels fitted, but I wouldn't call that original.  (For some reason, they didn't touch the engine which had done 36000 miles - resulting in them stopping several times to replace plugs, but they still finished 3rd in class and 10th outright.  David - Believe it or not, I've just started on rebuilding the body! Cheers,  Bill
