History

Introduced in 1931, the Lion LT3 is a forward control model built to carry single-deck bodywork. Having a wheelbase of 17ft 6in, it is powered by a Leyland 4-cylinder petrol engine of 28.9 hp, whilst its transmission is via a 4-speed sliding mesh gearbox and single plate clutch to an underslung worm rear axle.

The brakes which on all wheels are vacuum servo assisted and the LT3 continued until 1933.
