If you have not visited alvis14 lately there is plenty of interest as Eileen travels the world in search of Fourteen stories. Enquiries continue for news of cars once owned such as this one, 22761

MUA 57 – where are you now? Acquired by William Frank Blatley from Peter Thorpe in about 1958

Steve Horne has reviewed a new Alvis book by Matthew Vale – see Book Review

Amongst some donated material were eleven early copies of “Alvibatics” – part of a copy is reproduced below: Thanks to Chris Bluer for scanning all eleven copies.

One thought on “Fourteens, a new book and Alvibatics”

  1. You may be interested to know that in Smith-Clarke’s pocket diary for 1937 is written: ‘Mr John gave orders for the production of 1000. 14 hp, Four Cylinder cars’.
    I came across this in my research for the biography of ‘The Captain’ I’m writing.
