| 1921 GN-Salmson, GP de Boulogne |
Cyclecars were the stars of Plateau B at the 2019 Vintage Revival Montlhéry, whether originals or recreations. An intriguing mix of light small capacity sports and racing cars from the twenties and thirties. Difficult not to full in love with so many of them!
The 1921 GN-Salmson reminded us of the time these cars took the first three places in the 1921 GP de Boulogne powered by 1,100c V2 engines. Salmson produced the car under licence from the British Company GN (Godfrey & Nash).
The Jappic was a JAP engined cyclecar designed by H.M.Walters. The beautiful body was orginally made in Wimbledon by Jarvis & Co. The car held the 350cc record at Brooklands at over 70mph. It later had a 500cc engine. A lovely recreation.
Robert Sénéchal was a French WW1 fighter pilot, racing driver and industrialist. He produced cars from 1921 until he sold the company to Chenard et Walcker in 1925. The Sénéchal marque remained until 1929. Sénéchal won the 1922 GP de UMF and the Bol d'Or in 1924 and 1926 in his own cars.
