Panhard & Levassor tool kit spanner from the period 1890 - 1945. Panhard et Levassor sold their first automobile in 1890. based on a Daimler engine license. From 1910 Panhard worked to develop engines without conventional valves, using under license the sleeve valve technology that had been patented by the American Charles Yale Knight . Between 1910 and 1924 the Panhard & Levassor catalogue listed plenty of models with conventional valve engines, but these were offered alongside cars powered by sleeve valve power units. Following various detailed improvements to the sleeve valve technology by Panhard's own engineering department, from 1924 till 1940 all Panhard cars used sleeve valve engines . After World War II the company was renamed Panhard (without "Levassor"), ref http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panhard |
