I dont know who owned the red car on the right hand of the picture, but it did not belong to Harry Smethurst Alias (Harry Rat) because he couldnt drive.
remember my work days at counties was a good place to work had some good times and good mates grat memories.same what happend to the place.
Hello Chaps. I think it was Kevin Stewart`s car as i remember buying it off him.
Agree with the great times and shame they are gone.
Good luck to everyone.
Best regards
