EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of friends with their beloved cars in Mexborough, South Yorkshire, back in 1965. In the center stands Pat Wagstaff, an iconic figure known for his distinctive blazer and handlebar mustache. Pat was not only a familiar face in town but also ran a successful garage until the late 1970s. With his expertise as a capable mechanic, it comes as no surprise that Pat had previously worked on the groundbreaking Flying Bedstead project. This pioneering endeavor paved the way for the renowned Harrier Jump Jet. His mechanical skills were highly regarded within the community. Surrounded by his fellow car enthusiasts, this snapshot showcases their passion for automobiles during this era. The British-made Morris Mini Minor takes pride of place among these classic vehicles, symbolizing both style and practicality.

These men found solace in tinkering with engines and exploring new horizons on four wheels. Photographed by Michael Walters from Paul Walters Worldwide Photography Ltd. , this timeless piece allows us to glimpse into an era when cars were more than just machines – they represented freedom, camaraderie, and endless possibilities on open roads across England's picturesque countryside.
