Holcroft (Birmingham)
1937 to 1942 - G. Withnall (Sutton

1997 to 2007 - P.W.L. Hood (Huddersfield)
2007 to 2010 - D. Renotte (Belgium)
From Feb 2010 - Marc Jäppelt
(Germany)
The complete restoration was done
by the Hood family and some very spezialized
and well known vintage expert companies,
finalized in 2004. The original engine
slept for 50 years, from 1953 to 2003,
and was totally rebuilt to the original
Speed Model spec.. The body was sent
to a complete restoration on original
basis. Still today this original body,
made by Carbodies, is fitted and has
its original wooden frame and aluminium
covering. Everything is extremly well
and 100% documented by hundreds of
pictures, folders of invoices and
written material.
