Hi Timothy
Given that GE skinned the Brooklands in alloy I think
perhaps a few Cups could have been alloy covered.
I understand about 2000+ Cups were manufactured between
1925 and early 1929.
There is a slight flaw in my scheme though as normally
The tail cover would have been covered , in my case it will
Need to match the reasonable metal finish on the rest of the body.
Next job is to tidy the garage in preparation for building up a
gear box with new bearings , seals etc, and Andes gear set.
The block kindly sourced by Malcom P is in for boring so things are
Proceeding. The return of the windscreen will be a momentous day!
Plus working on prototyping replica GE dash/ bodyside badges, coming along nicely.
Regards Bill G
