2 examples of Crossley 25/30 Manchester body - long bonnet and wire wheels are wrong, but doors are almost spot on


- short bonnet, eight spoke wheels, doors asymetrical with sweeping curve to rear


2 examples Crossley 19.6 Tourer, long bonnet, ten spoke wheels, doors symetrical with small radius curves


Crossley 12/14 tourer, short bonnet, eight spoke wheels, (getting close!) but doors wrong again!

Miss Crossley's minature car! (Wasn't Rattletrap a very tight fit?)

There was also in 1923 a design for a 10hp car resembling a scaled down 14. It seems that only one or two were made and it is probable that they were never marketed. It is believed that a two seat tourer version was given to one of the Crossley family daughters
