J. A. Prestwich Japster
Description
Built on a Triking chassis, the Japster was powered by a bespoke 85-hp V-twin with a BMW bevel gear and Ford Mark 9 five-speed gearbox. This unique engine, a period correct re-creation of the 1920s J.A.P. JTO, featured a 1300cc block with thicker crankcases, ceramic-coated bores, and specialty castings from the same company that pioneered the original J.A.P. design. Curiously, while the Japster engine may be the closest historical match to original Morgans, Prestwich chose a cockpit and body design that departed significantly from the vintage look.
These were made from 2012 to 2014
