About Dellow
Dellow cars were made in factories at Alvechurch, Birmingham, England between 1949 and 1959.
Dellow Motors were founded by Ken Delingpole and Ron Lowe to produce cars for use in motor trials.
The first cars used a Ford 10 engine in an A frame chassis with very light simple aluminium bodywork, early cars having no doors. These early chassis frames were made from government surplus rocket launching tubes. The RP3 rockets were used in Hawker Typhoon and Bristol Beaufighter aircraft; the UP3 was a ground-based weapon.
The design emphasis was on light weight and a rearward weight bias for trials. Many sporting awards were won by drivers of Dellow cars in the early 1950s, not only in trials (for which they were mainly designed) but also in other events such as driving tests and hillclimbs. Dellows also took overall honours in the MCC organised Daily Express National Rally and the Circuit of Ireland Rally. Dellow drivers often shone in other forms of motor sport, Tony Marsh from Kinver went on to become RAC Hill Climb Champion on no less than 6 occasions. Peter Collins from Kidderminster, later drove for HWM, BRM and Vanwall, then for Ferrari.
