Singer Roadster
The Singer Roadster is a nine tax horsepower open 2/4-seater sports-tourer automobile manufactured by Singer from 1939 until 1955. It was launched in March 1939 as an open version of Singer's Bantam saloon and using many Bantam parts. After less than six months production was suspended for the duration of World War II then restarted with the engine moved forward, more interior space and other minor modifications. The Roadster was upgraded to the 4A model in 1949 with a 4-speed manual gearbox. The short lived 4AB and 4AC models were released in 1950 followed by the 4AD SM Roadster in 1951.

A few special Singer 4A car bodies were made by coach maker James Young. __TOC__ Singer 9 Roadster 1939-1949 The original Roadster was an occasional four-seat, two-door tourer, mostly based on the Bantam saloon with a c ...
