Description
Duple: After the Dominant For over seventy years, Duple was a leading name in coachbuilding in Britain, renowned for its luxury coach bodies. Formed in Hornsey, London, in 1919, the company grew to become one of the most popular suppliers to the British market. However, as new vehicle sales declined in the late 1980s, Duple's fortunes began to wane. This book explores the company's work after its dominant era, shedding light on its legacy in the world of coachbuilding. The story of Duple's decline and eventual closure in 1989 serves as a reminder of the changing landscape of the industry. This volume celebrates the company's contributions to the world of coachbuilding, offering a unique insight into its history and significance. With 96 pages of detailed information, this book provides a comprehensive look at Duple's work after the Dominant era.
