Armstrong Siddeley Hurricane

The Armstrong Siddeley Hurricane is a two-door, four-seat drophead coupé automobile produced by the British company of Armstrong Siddeley from 1946 until 1953.

The chassis featured independent front suspension using torsion bars and a live rear axle with leaf springs.

A Girling hydro-mechanical braking system was fitted, with the front drums hydraulically operated while those at the rear used rod and cable.

Early models of the Hurricane were fitted with a 70 bhp 1991 cc six-cylinder, overhead-valve engine, carried over from the pre-war 16 hp model but beginning in 1949 this was enlarged to a 75 bhp 2309 cc by increasing the cylinder bore from 65 to 70 mm.

Changes during the model life were minimal: however, the bonnet line was slightly lowered for 1948 when the car also acquired stoneguards on the leading edges of its rear wings.
