Can’t think of the model name but know who designed it 😁 blokes initials were VP,he worked for a few Manufacturers in the 30s onwards and few of his designs in NMM overshadowed by Turner.I’ll guess at Thunderbird as the model😂

At the time they had T90 and T80 singles T100 a logical name but Mr.Turner used that one lol. I’ll guess T60😁

Val Page designed it then he went to Ariel then BSA and back to Ariel,but I can’t think what it was called I don’t think they gave their bikes names till the Bonneville so must be a number.T6 again a guess😁
