I have come across a remote gear change. It...

Has a P Type turret with the reverse interlock,

Clearly fits the J type Wolseley box?

Is 2? shorter than the J remote? Mod for an early D perhaps?

It is cast aluminium, bulky and semicircular in cross section.

anyone know what it is?


No photo,

my Flickr instructions fail at para 4 on getting the URL of the picture...
No item 2 to click on!

Cheers

P

If it is not of MG manufacture, it might be by V.W.Derrington, who made a large range of remote controls and accessories for various cars in the mid-'thirties.

Their adverts, always containing plenty of MG material, are to be found in 'The Autocar', for instance.

I am just guessing but it sounds like a Wolseley remote to me.

Thanks so far, Everybody.

Pictures should arrive shortly.

Yes Bob, I expect you are on the right track, I have seen nothing like this before though.

Cheers

Good evening,
The remote is a Wolseley with a P-Type turret grafted on. I have another if you want to start a collection.
Regards,
Garry

Here is an example in use on an M-type "12/12" copy.
