Description
By: Malcolm Bobbitt .
Following the Armistice the motor industry was rebuilt providing cars for export. New vehicles were largely unavailable for the home market, and fortunate were those people having pre-war cars.
Motorists were determined to continue driving despite petrol rationing and raw material shortages, thus leading them to adopt some unique innovations.
