David Price picks up his prize 28 Sept 10
David Price was the winner of the auction prize of the TVR Factory
Sign at the recent BNG / BH. Brian Hosfield, of Lawfielld Engineering,
had arranged for David to come to the factory and have his car
photographed in the old Final Assembly area with the sign still in
position. David was on his way to the Lake District for a birthday
weekend treat and called in at Bristol Avenue for the photo session.
John Mleczek met us at the factory and arranged a great morning for
David in allowing him to take photo's of his car in many places in the
old factory site. Do any of you ex factory lads and lasses recognise
where they were taken?
I think I can claim to be the last person to use a screwdriver in the
Assembly area as I went up the ladder to remove the sign for David. It
was only when I got up close to it I realised it had holes in it
from an air rifle or something similar so it does have some excellent
provenance. I also took the opportunity to take a few other photos in
the building.
