Another mystery solved!

- Dick Weekes VMCC Calthorpe marque specialist

Michael Boyd’s charming family photos featured in the Letters pages of the April issue included a picture of a mystery machine. Well, mystery no longer, for it is undoubtedl­y a 350cc Calthorpe, the model being produced nearly unchanged between 1916 and 1922 with a break between 1917 and 1919 caused by the First World War. The model featured a Peco engine and Enfield twospeed gearbox.

A view of the model can be found here on our calthorpe.info website at http://calthorpe.info/ members/download/1915-1925downlo­ad/1921-brochure
