Hi All
I am looking for information,on Fowlers Garage High Street Newport IOW.
The Garage is long gone,but I am looking for history,photos,ads etc.
Fowlers,supplied my Traveller new in 1963 657 CDL,I am told the first Owner lived to a great age,and the car stayed on the IOW until the early 1980s.
The plan is to take the car back over sometime,for photos etc.
Thanks for any help or advice.
Trevor

Many thanks,for the advert a great help,still going in the 70s as a BL Dealer,and looks like a take over from Wadham Stringer

It was Wadham that built many Ambulance bodies,and buses etc.
Thanks again

I have made a few contacts on the IOW,and the plan is to go over next year,our East Kent Group is planning a trip,next May?
It will be about 35 years since my Traveller left the IOW,so time for a trip back Home!!
I have been told that a moggie with a DL number plate will receive a warm welcome,so cannot wait for the trip
regards
Trevor
