1920's
Originally engine makers the All British Company mainly built light cars with an air-cooled flat twin engine designed by Granville Bradshaw.
By the end of the Great War they had 22 acres (8.9 hectares) of factories were as well as cars they made Skootamota cycles.
The Supersports model was first offered in 1925 at £275 (UK Pounds) and had a fuel filler cap on top of the dummy radiator where a water-cooled car would have a radiator cap. This could lead to confusion with garage attendants. By 1927 about forty examples had been built. Around 1500 cars of all types were produced altogether.
ABC were absorbed by Vickers in 1951.
