http://windovers.co.uk/veterans.htm

The History of Windovers. A challenge for coach makers. Initially, the traditional coach makers saw the motor car as a threat to their livelihood. In fact, because the early cars had separate chassis and bodies this allowed them to offer bespoke bodies to suit the needs of individual buyers. Earnest Windover was born in 1861 and went on to design the Ralli Car, a two wheeled horse drawn vehicle, which became very popular. It was important for the new automobilists to be properly turned out.
