speedsters and cycle cars at Huntsville

1921 Tamplin, a distinctive, tandem two-seater British automobile, notable for its narrow wheels, distinctive cycle-car design

The car was powered by a 980 cc JAP V-twin, air-cooled engine mounted on the side of the body and coupled by chain drive to a Sturmey-Archer three-speed-and-reverse gearbox and then by an exposed belt to the rear wheels.

 To avoid the need for a differential drive was to the left side rear wheel. 

The engine was started by a kick starter from the driver’s seat. 

 The clutch pedal, when fully depressed operated the brakes.
