When I was at school I had a Morris ex GPO van that I used to run around in (illegally).
My first proper car was a 1947 Vauxhall Wyvern, metallic green with bench seats and column change. A garage owner wanted
me to give up Motor bikes saying they were dangerous. I said I couldn't afford a car so he showed me the Wyvern and said if
you could afford it would you give up the bikes? I said yes and he sold me this one owner car for £ 4. I kept it for nearly a year
and sold it to my mate for £ 8. We still meet up and he still jokes that I ripped him off.!!!
