I am trying to find the whereabouts of the AC 12 HB AXA. Last owned by my father Alfred Juchli in 1964 and stationed at Birrfeld.

Eight models of the AC12 were built between 1931 and 1935. Available with three different engines,a 95hp Argus AS8, a 120hp D.H.Gypsy III and 140hp Armstrong Siddeley Lynx (illustrated). This was the last design from Alfred Comte before the recession of the 1930's took another victim.
