I'm currently looking after a Club project, and have to make a list of EVERYTHING Vincents/HRD produced over the years.

Can anyone see anything that I've missed?

Any help really would be gratefully received.

Graham

Graham,

I seem to remember that the D Comet was called the 'Victor', and there were 2 made - of which only about half a dozen survive. :rolleyes:

white shadow? but i guess this was just a variation on the black so probably never officially named as such and therefore wont need a mention? Depends on what your project is.

Don't forget the famous warhorse, Gunga Din, in his various forms.
And the Dearden bike, the supercharged Twin prepared for an attack on the world record.

The Company output during the War included land mines and fuses, the latter incorporated into the rockets used to devastating effect by Spitfire pilots at the battle of Falaise Gap.
