In the mid-70s my wife got a job in the Personnel Dept, Lucas Cheston Rd but when she found out what the factory workers were earning she got a transfer to the alternator assembly line, Lucas Gt King St (Lampac I think it was called) I dropped her off before going on to my job in Witton at Salisbury Transmission, on occasions I would see the Lucas Lighting Test Car -
very stylish: a light beige metallic 1976 Ford Granada Mk1 with a stripe along its length of the Lucas corporate colours: green and grey.
I still thinks it looks good even by today's standards.Peg.
P.S. It had a grill mounted on the front to allow the easy fixing of many lights for testing.
Honed by the sands of time I am a different man to yesterday and I will be different tomorrow.
