This is the first book to cover the little-known car production of
the famous Birmingham Small Arms company (BSA). BSA had its roots
in gun manufacture in Birmingham and then expanded to include
bicycles, cars and motorcycles and the take-over of Daimler. In
1929 they built an innovative front wheel drive three wheeler light
car which led on to more conventional models, all being front wheel
drive. Reported in the press as being 'milestones in history', the
models included the Three Wheeler, the FW32, T9 and Scout, BSA
being pioneers worldwide of large-scale production front wheel
drive. Today the concept is almost universal, but BSA were first.
Due to impending and necessary wartime commitments, car production
stopped in 1940. Drawing on his technical background in the
aeronautical world and full access to unique photography and
illustrations from the BSA archive as well as the BSA Front Wheel
Drive Club, Graham Skillen has produced a unique book that will be
of interest not only to BSA fans, but to classic car enthusiasts in
general.
