Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jowett Cars were built in Bradford, from 1906 to 1954. All pre-war cars up to 1935 were powered by a twin-cylinder horizontally opposed 7hp engine. In 1935 a new four-cylinder horizontally opposed engine was introduced with a 10hp rating running alongside the original twin-cylinder model which had been increased to an 8hp rating. Little changed during this pre-war period, many of the models were made in very small numbers, and sadly, there are no survivors today. The Jowett brothers experimented in the mid-1930’s with a new in-line power unit which did not go into production. The post-war period saw massive changes in the Jowett company, with both Jowett brothers retiring by the end of the war. The first all-new model was the Javelin saloon, launched in 1947 and the Jupiter sportscar in 1950. By 1951 there should have led to a completely new range of cars, vans, pick-up and estate cars, known as the Bradford CD range. There were plans for a racing Jupiter known as the R1 and to re-vamp the Jupiter for road use known as the R4. Sadly, none of these models materialised and Jowett’s history could have been so different had fate been kinder to them.

Download or read book My Car Was a Jowett written by Noel Stokoe and published by Tempus Publishing, Limited. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jowett car is perhaps the most famous marque to come out of Yorkshire. The Bradford-built cars were for the most part utilitarian but their cheapness and simplicity brought them a loyal following. The company closed its doors in 1954 but the owners club was and still is one of the most active of all. Jowetts have a loyal following still and Noel Stokoe tells here the story of the Bradford company that took on the world and even showed them how to produce simple, economical and stylish cars. My Car was a Jowett is a collection of stories and memories of the men and women who have owned one of these Yorkshire cars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The car came of age during the 1930s. It ceased to be a successor to the horse-drawn cart and no longer was it a rich man's toy. This book charts the development made in the decade prior to the Second World War, during which the means of construction, materials, engineering and the companies themselves became established. Variety was the essence of the period and the public could take its pick from hundreds of models. It is a story of engineering improvement, the rationalisation of sales and service in vehicles and components, and of change even to the roads themselves.

This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Jupiter’s inception and development, to its sporting successes, and its current status as a sought-after classic, ‘Jowett Jupiter – the Car that Leaped to Fame’ is a unique book by Edmund Nankivell, the world authority on the Jupiter, and is a complete study of the model. With its advanced chassis designed by Dr Eberan-Eberhorst, the noted Austrian engineer who was also responsible for designing the Auto Union Type D Grand Prix car, the Jowett Jupiter was an instant hit. Its responsive handling and lively engine made the Jupiter a great sporting success from the off, with a record-breaking win at the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1950, and a class 1-2 win at the 1951 Monte Carlo International Rally. This book covers the Jupiter’s success across the board, revealing the full chronology of the model, its racing derivatives, and the special-bodied Jupiters from the likes of Stabilimenti Farina and Abbott of Farnham. With chapters detailing Jupiters in current use, historic racing, and concours events, this new edition includes more images and updated information, and provides a comprehensive record of this fantastic, historic car. eBook ISBN: 978-1-787118-02-7 (9781787118027) Print ISBN: 9781845849122 (9781845849122)

Download or read book The Jowett Bradford written by Noel Stokoe and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2019-11-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jowett Bradford was rushed into production in 1946 as a stop-gap model pending the launch of the all-new Javelin saloon, which its young designer, Gerald Palmer, had been working on since 1942. It was based on the 1938 8 hp commercial and was basically a pre-war design in every respect. It was, however, very popular with farmers and small businesses such as bakers, greengrocers, fishmongers and drapers etc., as it was economical, cheap, rugged and simple to work on. It was powered by the flat-twin horizontally-opposed 1005 cc engine, which was basically the same as the one fitted to the first prototype Jowett in 1906 with minor improvements, it was so antiquated when compared to the new Javelin saloon Jupiter sports car. The Bradford was expected to be dropped from the range in 1951 but this never happened and remained in production right up to the closure of the factory in 1954 when Jowett's ceased trading. Ironically, it was the largest selling model that Jowett's ever produced with almost 40,000 being built.
