A lady named Nina Locke has sent me an email and asks: -
"I was wondering if you could possibly assist me in trying to identify a plate I have.
I am no expert in this area but I am trying to track down information regarding the attahed image.
The plate states a reference number and I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction to search for the actual car this came off of.
I have been advised by a vintage car enthusiast that it may have come off of MG Midget T-Type
Any info would be gratefully received."
The picture is a dashboard suppliers plate. All I can find out about the company is that they were wound up following an extra ordinary general meeting here is a quote form the London Gazette
"At an Extraordinary General Meeting of the above- named Company, duly convened, and held at 4 Queen Street, Ashford Kent, on the 20th day of January 1967, the following Special Resolution was duly passed:
" That the Company be wound up voluntarily, and that Mr. Arthur James Albury, Chartered Accountant, of 4 Queen Street, Ashford, Kent, be and he is hereby appointed Liquidator for the purposes of such winding-up."
(377) G. F. Hayward, Chairman and Director.
Has anyone any knowledge they appear to have been sports car dealers and sold, "In addition to MGs, the same dealer could also supply Sir or Madam with a Jowett Jupiter, a Morgan, one of the recently-introduced Austin-Healeys (at the time the 100 BN1 was current), or the Austin A40 Sports model, powered - if you can call it that - by the Somerset's 1200cc engine, albeit with twin (rather than single) carburettors." a quote from the Maidstone and Mid Kent Motor Club's magazine "Kent Driver" of 1954.
