	Co-Brand: Driving Today
		The son of an Irish muscian-turned-turned-piano-repairman, Lyons was a motorcycle enthusiast who was fond of racing his Harley-Davidson in local events during the bleak years of the First World War.
		In those days custom coachwork was all the rage in Britain (much more so than in America, where it was largely confined to the most expensive luxury automobiles) and Swallow began to earn a good deal of income building attractive and sporty bodies for the ubiquitous Austin Seven.
		So he planned a bold stroke for the 1948 Earls Court Motor Show, a bold stroke that would be seriously plagarized by Chevrolet in the creation of its Corvette five years later.
