A step back to a different motoring age at Laurel Garage with its ancient Fina pumps and garage interior which looks like something out of the 1950's. The garage is run by Bernard White, son of Jim 'Chalky' White who sold me my first car in 1963. [a 1955 Standard 8] Jim White was known for his fondness of the Austin Atlantic convertible, of which he once had a substantial collection. None were visible on this occasion.
