c.1930's Velocette GTP, 249cc, project. Registration number not registered. Frame number GB 6208T. Engine number GA 3757.
The Velocette company made their first two-stroke in 1913 and made continuous design improvements culminating in the GTP model of 1930.
The GTP was a sporting lightweight of advanced design incorporating coil ignition and pump fed lubrication controlled by throttle opening. The GTP stood out amongst the run-of-the-mill lightweights that were built to a cost, being very much a sporting machine built to performance criteria and finished in Velocette's lustrous black enamel.
This project was being built as a sprint/hillclimb machine, the wheels have been respoked with new tubes and tyres. Buyers should satisfy themselves as to its completeness.
