Description
1924 Swift 10hp Q-type tourer
This charming Swift Q-Type is a true survivor that impressively still comes with its distinctive original 100-year-old registration. It is a 10HP ‘Chummy’ model, with the four-seat interior layout. Almost unbelievably, it comes with the original instruction manual from back in 1924. The Chummy body is finished in maroon with a black interior, and the four-cylinder engine has a capacity of 1097cc with a three-speed gearbox. Very good condition with everything working as it should, charming summer fun vehicle.
Coventry-based Swift originally made sewing machines and bicycles, and began building cars in 1900. The range developed from a single-cylinder model using a de Dion engine, building on this success with a model using a Swift-developed two-cylinder engine. A range-topping 3. 0-litre was introduced by 1913. This Swift 10 was originally launched in 1914 and developed across several iterations, with this Q-Type version introduced in 1923. It boasted an impressive 55mph top speed and had convenience features such as electric starting.
