I understood Metchim's 'Earthquake' was one car which was developed over the years, ultimately becoming (the first?) Ulsteroid, but one of those photos suggests otherwise. The car entered at Le Mans in 1933 was clearly still chummy based, and yet the photo at Brooklands dated 1933 BARC Easter Meeting (and therefor pre-dating Le Mans) shows a much more sporting body. I have never seen a reference to an 'Earthquake 2', but did Metchim run more than one car?
