From the Beaded Wheels archives comes this photo of G C Dennison’s garage, Eden Street, Oamaru, c. early 1930s. (Located opposite current Smith’s City premises.) We are unsure of the relation ship between G C Dennison and Frederick Ridley Dennison (1876–1960) who was an Oamaru mechanical engineer. A quick search on Wikipedia lists Federick Dennison as the designer and builder of New Zealand’s first indigenous motor car in 1900 and first bus in 1906. Photographs Required: Submissions of suitable prints and information are welcome. Post or email original photographs or high resolution digital files of historical interest with any available information to: beadedwheels@vcc.org.nz or Beaded Wheels, PO Box 2546, Christchurch 8140. Laserprints/photocopies are not suitable. Photos will be returned as soon as practicable.

DRIVING OUR HISTORY
F.A.B. VIRGIL Chris Leith’s 1955 Triumph 6T Thunderbird (Sprung Hub) Words and photos by Greg Price. Restoration photos Chris Leith
“If vere’s one fing wot I like, it’s a burn up on my bike!” So sang Mike Sarne in one of his popular hit tunes in the mid-1960s –Just for Kicks! The next line went, “A burn up wif a bird up on my bike!” In Chris’s case he generally rides with a group of like-minded motorcyclists from the Canterbury VCC bike section, but ‘birds’ are few and far between on these runs from my observations. I also haven’t established if the bike that Mike Sarne referred to was a Triumph or not, but it most likely was, as they were the motorcycle of choice for bikers back in the day, (and still are) especially those who hung out at London’s famous Ace Cafe. For my part, owning a Triumph was a ‘must do’ as opposed to my mother’s view which was a ‘must not’! Which is quite interesting as Chris’s reasons for choosing Triumphs are far more well-thought out than mine. For example, he believes Triumphs epitomise the advance of the British motorcycle industry, and were the swansong of Edward Turner’s time at Triumph. In addition, Triumph was a significant part of the war effort (WWII) and of course many Triumphs were exported to the United States of America (USA). But before we get too far into this tale, let’s look at just one of the things that makes this particular motorcycle so special – it being the ‘sprung hub’ model, and the year of manufacture was 1955, and sprung hubs as such were purportedly not made after 1954, or were they?
WHAT’S A ‘SPRUNG HUB’ THEN? I’d actually heard of them before now, moving in motorcycle circles, but have never actually owned a Triumph with one fitted, in retrospect for no other reason than perhaps idle gossip suggesting that they were ‘problematic’. According to various interweb sources, the Triumph sprung hub is a motorcycle suspension unit contained within a rear wheel hub. It was designed by Triumph engineer Edward Turner to give Triumph’s existing rigid frames the option of rear suspension. Turner designed Triumph’s sprung hub in 1938. The design was inspired by Dowty hubs with suspension within them, as used in the fixed landing gear of Gloster Gladiator fighter aircraft. Turner’s design used a plunger-type suspension made small enough to fit inside the wheel hub. With one spring above the rear axle and two below, the sprung hub provided about two inches of vertical travel and weighed 17 pounds (7.7 kg) more than a conventional hub. It was designed to allow rear suspension to be offered optionally without altering Triumph’s existing frames. The sprung hub did not provide a drive gear for the speedometer, so

CHASING PANTHER SHADOWS Words David Broadhead
I’m the proud owner of a 1950 Panther Model 100 (600cc) which I bought fully restored / rebuilt (by Paul Downie here in Auckland) and road legal in late 2020. I felt the Panther was a good fit since I was born in Yorkshire and at the time my brother – still in Yorkshire and also a member of the Panther Owners Club (POC) – had just been bitten by a 1961 Model 120 (650cc). While I have owned several different bikes over the years, my mechanical and engineering aspirations far outweigh my actual abilities; I’m happiest polishing stuff in the knowledge that I can’t do too much damage that way! But there’s a nagging desire to upskill and with an almost empty nest and paid work now just a distant memory I wondered if perhaps my time had come to attempt to upskill. During lockdown I remembered one of my fellow VCC members telling me that he had a Panther Model 95 engine. The Model 95 is a bit of a rarity in the Panther world. It was manufactured for just two years – 1938 and 1939 and then only

in very small numbers; 334 in total before the production ledger terminated in August 1939. The idea apparently was for it to be a bit more sporty than the other heavyweight (Hwt) Panthers in order to challenge some of the bigger marques for a slice of that part of the market. Then the war got in the way and the model did not reappear post war. An interesting fact is that while a handful of Model 95s still exist, there are less of them in England than elsewhere. I have heard two possible explanations for this (aside from the usual ice, salt on the roads and corrosion).
STUTTGART, GERMANY MARCH 03, 2017: The motorcycle Panther Model 100, 1929.
For the uninitiated here are a few key Panther facts: • 1900 - Company originally formed in 1900 as Phelon and Rayner in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire • 1901 - the first company to make an all chain-driven motorcycle • 1901 - became identified with their distinctive sloping 40-degree stressed member engine, patented • 1904 - Phelon and Moore founded, bikes marketed as P&M • 1914 - Major supplier to the Royal Flying Corps (predecessor of the RAF) during WWI (bonus points if you know what the main cargo was for a despatch rider going to the front lines. Clue: they were alive) • 1924 – “Panther” first used as a model name • 1929 – Panther became the marque name • 1950s - Became known as sidecar haulers (when, in Britain, sales tax and vehicle registration for vehicles with two or three wheels were significantly cheaper than for those with four). Approx 90% of heavyweights sold were set up for sidecars (solos required a special order). • 1962 - With the advent of cheap cars such as the Mini and the general demise of the British motorcycle industry the receivers were called in • Production and spares sales continued until 1966 – the latter handled by a lady called Alice who had worked in every single department in the company and sold spares direct to customers every Wednesday
The first is that although the bikes were produced before the war many of them sat in the cupboard until hostilities ceased. Following a declaration of peace all manufacturers in Britain were ordered to export as much of their inventory as possible as the nation was desperate for foreign currency. Version two is that since production had only just got going P&M decided that it would be safer to export them to smaller markets where it was less likely that demand would outstrip supply. The final point to note about the Model 95 is that it is perhaps the only Panther Hwt (500cc or greater) that has a front down tube. This is because the bike was a bit of a mishmash with the front end being based on the lightweight (Lwt) 350 of the day and other parts such as the valves and everything from the seat-post aft being the same as the Hwts. And it doesn’t “slope” quite as much as the other Hwts. Anyway, back to locked down Auckland. Having done a bit of research, as Auckland moved down a lockdown level, I went to have a socially distanced look at the parts on offer.
It turns out that the owner had been something of a “Mr. Panther” here in Auckland back in the day and as well as the M95 engine had a stray pre-war Lwt frame, a couple of gearbox housings, a mag, a carb and parts of three or four Lwt engines – mostly Model 75 - from the late 40s and early 50s which he was hoping to sell as a job lot. So with no obvious end to the lockdown in sight I of course jumped in and bought the lot….. (My wife had been doing jigsaw puzzles during lockdown and mentioned that she had a piece missing. To which I replied that I now had one piece of my puzzle but need to find not only the rest of the pieces but also 1. how they fit together and 2. the skill to do it.) After bringing the assorted treasures home I began gathering information and received a lot of help from the Panther Owners Club (POC) in identifying the various bits and pieces via photos and numbers (engine commission and build numbers and frame numbers) and from factory drawings. It was particularly interesting to find that some of the people I had read about in the excellent Panther Story by Barry Jones were actually the ones that built some of the engines currently sitting on my bench; Mr. Frank Dutton for example apparently built the 1952 M75 engine (commission number 52K290B, build number D4515 – D for Dutton). It turned out that the M95 engine was missing most parts from and including the pushrods upwards i.e. no pushrods, valves, springs, rockers etc. I was able to source these from Laurie Neal in England. Laurie is the author of the definitive Panther workshop manual and I was lucky enough to visit him during a trip back to Europe in their summer of 2022. I also took in the POC National
