Fake
Verdel 750
The Verdel and the Packer were constructed in Clitheroe, Lancashire,
UK a few years back by a talented maintainance engineer. Both the Verdel
and the Packer were sold to Sammy Miller as such.
Verdel did exist but made aircraft engines, no records exist, Packer
did exist as motorcycle manufcaturer but again no information exists.
I was in the workshop of the chap who made the tank only this morning.

How intriguing. So the Verdel is a sort of replica
vintage machine, a Spagthorpe in the flesh if you will.
What was the purpose of building these machines, and were
they sold to Miller as restored originals, do you know, or as what they
are - as you put it, fakes?
.....
Correspondent replied that Sammy Miller bought them as
original creations which had been built as engineering exercises, and that
originally the radial engine was to have powered a Morgan-style machine
but the project developed into the magnificent board-racer concept bike
it is now.
