Phelon and Moore was established in 1904 and unusually in an industry normally centred on Birmingham were based in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire. They distinctively manufactured machines with a sloping cylinder that replaced the front frame downtube, built under a patent filed by Joah Phelon in 1901 . During the First World War the company supplied a large number of machines to the services, particularly the Royal Flying Corp and usually with a sidecar attached, a role that was to become synonymous with the marque. Initially more commonly known as P+M, they launched a new model called the Panther in the mid 1920s, a title that was eventually adopted as a brand-name for all their products. In 1932 the Model 100, an OHV 600cc single, was launched and this was produced through to the 1960s ending its production run as the 645cc Model 120 in 1967.

This unusual custom special is based on a 1958 M100 with a rigid rear end and Panther's trademark twin-port single-cylinder engine. Plenty of parts, including the frame, have been chrome plated with some clever design features like a Vincent hinging rear mudguard to allow wheel removal. A stand out machine at any bike gathering, especially with its twin fishtail silencers, it was ridden by the vendor last summer, not run since it will need the normal checks before use and comes supplied with a few manuals, various road test copies and a current V5C.
