The Singer 11 Airstream is a mid-range car that Singer built from 1934 to 1936 as a supplement to the Singer 11 , which was also manufactured from 1934 .
The car had a four-cylinder in - line engine with 1584 cm³ displacement (bore × stroke = 68 mm × 105 mm). This made the bore 1.5 mm larger than that of the Singer 11 engine.
The sedan had a four-door streamlined body, similar to that of the contemporary Chrysler Airflow . Its wheelbase was 127 mm shorter than that of the 11 and the track was also 51 mm narrower. In contrast to the “normal” 11, the Airstream had independent wheel suspension at the front and only a rigid axle suspended from semi-elliptical longitudinal leaf springs at the rear.
In 1936 the streamlined version of the Model 11 was discontinued without a successor.
