Alan Gill Is that Malcolm Howell who put the photo into the Wedding cars. I think it was Mount St where they lived. I went to school with Malcolm & Rodger & it was Rodger who was the younger. Hell!!!! We used to get into some trouble.

I worked with Ray Sails son at the Grey Star

Colin Skates
this photo would be no earlier than 1965 as dad bought a brand new 1964 vauxhall velox and the number plate was DH 290 and threrefor Bob's car with DH 454 and Ray with DX 856 probably sets it at least 1966

Omg Ray Sail that's my dad, many a Saturday it was my job to dress the inside and put doll and ribbons on the front for the weddings Mandy Jean Partleton
My parents had MK3 Zephyrs on their wedding day. 1964 I think.
My husband and I had them for our wedding cars when we got married 2006. We also own a MK3 Zodiac. Great looking cars!
