For those of us who remember, the word “Honda” was crafted into the iron fencing on the wall around the offices at intervals of every twelve feet or so. I do hope they were kept for posterity.
The Rivet Supply Company – remember them in the late seventies/early eighties? – were also on Power Road I recall – maybe they still are. I didn’t go up there.
Moving further down, I was really quite depressed to find The Chequered Flag Garage is now no more. I know Graham Warner sold up ages ago, but the site is now flats.
Even the old Institute of Advanced Motorists building has gone – although in fairness they are still on the High Road in a new building on the other side of the road. Wonder if they kept the Dion Pears original of the sharknose Ferrari that once hung behind their old reception? I tried to buy it from them once after I’d sold them some old green screen computer terminals! They weren’t too impressed!! (Just hope they kept the painting)
Didn’t Alan Jones once get into a punch-up outside the old Chiswick Tandoori?!
Inevitably, that’s gone as well now.
Chiswick once had quite a lot of racing people in its midst.
Remember Connoisseur Carbooks on Devonshire Terrace? Think they moved a long time ago, but I guess Chaters are still in Isleworth, unless that’s now flats as well…
Any memories of Chiswick anybody?
Mark
Certainly remember seeing many racing (and rally) people in there down the years.
