SOLD

Description

Ariel    1938  350cc OHV  model NH “Red Hunter” frame # XG   6566 engine # BE 630

 

The basics of the “Red Hunter “ could be traced back to a  Val Page design, but the name first came into use in the 1932 programme that had been designed by   Edward Turner. 
The new  sporty OHV models in 250, 350 and 500cc capacity  were very good-looking,  reliable and sturdy. 
They became great performers in off-road competition work as well as for fast touring and were produced till 1960, when Ariel management decided to concentrate on two strokes and phase out four stroke production. 
This NH is a handsome machine with polished aluminium oil bath chain case  and upswept exhaust pipes. 
It’s an older restoration.
