On
September 4, 1922, in Blackpool, England, two young
motorcycle enthusiasts, William Lyons and William
Walmsley, set up the Swallow Sidecar Company to produce
sidecars for motorcycles. The company continued to
make sidecars until the advent of WWII. In 1926 the
company built the small Austin Seven, a "people's
car" of rather Spartan design.
