Description

Author: Peter Tutthill, Softbound, 48 Pages, ISBN: b133b - 1st Edition - Personally signed by author

Post World War Two the demand for new cars far outstripped production, and waiting list were as long as three years. Two talented Derbyshire men saw the opportunity to create a new make, PARAMOUNT. This book recounts the history of the marque's early days in Swadlincote and Melbourne. With more than 180 photos, it not only gives a history of the production models but also of the almost completely unknown prototypes. The moderately priced four-seater sports tourer was remarkable in a number of ways compared with its contemporaries. The Alvis-engined prototype, the four door saloon and the stylish sports car are shown with never before published photos. The book also includes brief details of motor manufacture in the county of Derbyshire. A fascinating story of a stylish British car of the late 1940's and early 1950's.
