Her is a picture of my dad taken around 1952 on his farm on South Dartmoor. Any idea of the make or model. I think he was recently back from National Service in REME which may explain the cap at a jaunty angle.
Thanks,
Raymondo

Thanks for your help - consensus of opinions. Sadly my dad is no longer here to ask.

Was Dad left handed? Lovely photo BTW.

Looks like he's got his coat ready to choke the air intake, just in case it misbehaves.

My dad had one of them but it was only 3 wheel. It died in the frosts of 1963 with a cracked block.
