Well, that's good enough for the point. I have it as a 1925 Galloway 12, which resides in Western Australia and was restored by a firm called Galloway Engines (no relation). Apparently around 50 Galloway units were sold in Australia in the 20s, and less than 10 of them still survive.

Thank you el_monty for accepting my reply on Galloway, but It seems to have forgotten to add my 321 point to my account ... It was easy to guess this brand because the emblem of the radiator in knight shield form is unique among UK brands.

Oh. I was pretty certain that you had 319, and I added the 320th point. Can someone check?

Sorry Wendax, in July 27 I understud that you gave me a point (my 320th) because I've solved a part of your puzzle 2291 (truck Renault ZYAB) Maybe you forgot to add it.

Sorry, I must have missed that one (or at least missed the click button). Point awarded.
