Lesson plan

Dallison

The Dallison was an English cyclecar made in 1913 only by the Dallison Gearing and Motor Co Ltd based in Birmingham. The car was powered by a Precision air- or water-cooled, V twin engine driving the rear wheels by, unusually, a five-speed gearbox and worm gear final drive. It was envisioned to reach a weekly production of 30 or 50 cars a week but it is unlikely that this actually happened.
