ALVIS 12/70 SB/SC

Sports tourer, drophead coupé, sports saloon.

Straightforward pushrod three-bearing four with cart springs all round' Bendix brakes and gearbox as for Silver Crest family, but pleasant remote-control shift and centre-lock wire wheels which the similar post-war TA14 lacks. Tourers scarce: 1939 SCs have roomier boots and exposed spare wheels, and horizontal rather than vertical grille bars spell a 1940 model.
