H & H 45 Glow Engine for Tether Cars and Boats, 1948
The prototype for H&H engines was produced before WW II and was followed by a limited production in 1947 and 1948. In 1947 Arden introduced the glow plug seen here. With the introduction of glow plug, the high performance rotary valve engines, and the ease to convert older spark ignition engines into glow ignition, H&H production fell by the wayside. This model is fitted with ball bearings; it is not known how many of these tether car/ boat engines were produced out of an estimated 130 engines built.
