Geraint Owen, whom we all know from the famous BABS (a lot less people know he was the first private to sell a car through these pages many-many years ago), has problems identifying the vintage brakes on another brilliant car, the Parry Thomas Flatiron car (right in the picture below, Babs on the left and the Leyland-Thomas in the middle).

'They are metric (all the bolts are metric threads and the diameter is 300 mm). They may well have been made in France, but I know for sure that they were made in the winter of 1925/26. They are fitted to the Parry Thomas Flatiron GP car'

Any idea about these mystery brakes? Please share your comments and/or educated guess below.
