This item published in 1953 in The Motor is intreguing....because I'm unsure if it went into serious production...

A British 500cc 4 cylinder racing engine from J.A.P....H'mm...

While on the subject of J.A.P....their V twin 1100cc offering for 1950....

The Waycott-Goulding sidecar chassis used on Stuart Waycott's ISDT 595cc Velocette outfit in 1938.

Finally and I hadn't planned to use it this time....an evocative photo of the P & R Williams 3 day trials team in early 1950's, left Alan Burt and right Ron Kessing...the weather looks ugly judging by their riding gear....both keen Velo men and both riding AJS's!!
