During those days, Lyons’s own choice for transport was a motorcycle. Their son, William, had served king and country during World War I, and was spending the first few years thereafter refurbishing surplus military motorcycles and selling them to his friends. He owned several, including a Sunbeam, an Indian, and a Harley-Davidson. The Walmsleys were well-off thanks to the family coal business. Sometime in 1921, new neighbors moved into a house down the street from the Lyons’s digs. Brief ownership of four-wheelers — in the form of an obscure and unreliable light car called the Buckingham — left him unsatisfied with what he could afford, and it was quickly back to bikes for the young salesman.
These production numbers, when added to the regular flow of Austin-Swallows and sidecars, show just how far Lyons and Swallow had come in a relatively short span of years. And it should be noted that the various chassis being bodied were sufficiently dissimilar in size and shape to require unique panels. If there were familial design features (and there were), there was no interchangeability. Style was not the only reason for Swallow’s success; price had much to do with it as well. There were, after all, dozens of companies offering custom coachwork in England at the time, but the Swallow bodies were, thanks to quantity production and Lyons’s tendency to squeeze the maximum out of every pence that came in, less expensive than most.
