Cars that have left an impression from your walk to school

My mate had a fruit and veg stall on north end road market, and I used to drink in the Clem Atlee pub before home games

 

I remember them Maroon and cream livery ...mainly Fodens ...a big firm .

 

The gearbox kept jammin'...

 

You surprise me , I thought you would have drunk in TE Golden Lion because of the strippers

Swap! Don't you know Zepyhrs were owned by scrap metal dealers

 

In the mid sixties used to go past a Saab dealer and a Wartburg dealer on the way to school ...... had a soft spot for the Wartburg!

 

Golden lion there’s a blast from the past, girls coming round with a pint glass to do a full strip .
My mates all lived on the Clem Atlee estate and on that side of Fulham, do you remember the old bag lady who used to push a pram around Fulham with all her worldly goods on it, when she died rumour has it they found thousands of pounds on that pram

 

Of course.It was a robin reliant

 

Found a picture.

Marc bolan lived at the end of our road and this was always parked outside not sure if it was his as I’m sure he had a mini...

Always fascinated me, don’t know why but I was very young!

Then there was this which was positively space age although much older!



But it was a 70’s bug that blew me away circa 4yrs old. It was pale blue metallic and had one of those autoplas rear window spoiler things. I would peer through the window and dream of someday owning one!

 

Did you get one?

 

Yep as soon as I could afford one. I think I was about 18 and it was my 4th car. And I’ve still got it!
