I lived in a small village in the fifties as a schoolboy.
Very few people had cars at all. This is in Central Scotland after all.
I can only remember 3 cars in our street, an MGTA! He worked for the Army
, a Fordson Van(E93) , he was the local joiner and an older bank worker who had
A Box Saloon. In the next street a teacher had an early VW Beetle.
In those days I used to sit on wall and collect car numbers
It could take you an hour to get a dozen!
The weather was always better in the summer though!
