I have photo of Walkers cycle shop on Green Lane/ Carlton Rd. junction other shops you mention are a bit further along later selling Fiat and Simca cars.Will try to learn how to send photos.
Hello Old Boy, the Ray Walker you mention is my father, he moved down to Worcestershire in 1965 I think. I have a photo of the shop mentioned as a cycle shop, Ray is in a pedal car next to his dad. I also have 1 of the Witton Rd. shop as a motorcycle shop.
Regards Marcus Walker
My grandfather sold Simca's at Small Heath (Walkers) all I heard from my father was how well they handled. Perhaps they filled the boot for test drives?
