Swap meet find 1942 Inter

[Keith Webb]

Aaah yes, Bill Drew, his brother Les and sister whose name I can't recall but who used to be in the office most of the time. I think she died of lung cancer. Bill was always having trouble with Les as I recall.
For those who don't know, Bill and his siblings inherited the business from their father. By the time I knew them in the mid 70s they were truck wreckers and resellers of old surplus parts accumulated over decades.
They had several large yards in the Kensington, Ascot Vale and Moonee Ponds area full of truck wrecks including many CMPs and even a carrier.
I used to visit to collect parts when I worked for Hughes Auto Spares and was allowed to go through the yards when it suited them. I photographed them fairly comprehensively.
The yards are long gone, but last time I drove along Mt. Alexander Rd I noticed the shop was still there with it's collection of hubcaps in the window. This was quite some time ago, I wonder whether it's still there.
