1903 Acme Rear Entrance Tonneau twin cylinder.

Car number: 3-15
Registration number: Applied for.
Dating Certificate: Applied for.

A super little London to Brighton car dating from 1903. The Acme Car company started making cars in 1903 having poached an engineer from Mercedes in Germany who was tasked with designing their first cars. By 1912 The receivers were called in & the Acme Car co was no more.

The car boasts a particularly robust twin cylinder engine rated at some 16 horsepower. This provides sufficient power to propel the car speed with a full compliment of four passengers aboard. In fine mechanical order. the car starts readily & is easy to drive. A useful wicker brolly holder is located on the side of the car. It carries a full compliment of veteran lighting equipment all in solid brass.

The car is finished in a jaunty red with black leather to the seats. The front seats are old patinated & comfortable with new leather to the rear seating surfaces. The car is from the Brass era & is covered with brass items wherever you look. Various plaques attest to regular usage in Germany by the previous owner who has used it in a variety of creepy crawly style rallies in his homeland. The wheels are wooden artillery style with the spokes in good tight order.

We are in the process of having the car VCC dated & expect to have this done in time to get a London to Brighton entry for this years run.
