Are there any experts out there that have heard of a firm called Bickley Motors. They were active in S London, 1920ish, making bodies for RRs and other chassis.
I ask because the owner, a Mr Levett, was my Grandfather, I now have no family that were around in those days to ask.
I found a huge tome on coachbuilders in Waterstones but could find no mention in there.

There is a rather posh area called Bickley about 5 miles away from here in Bromley. Could the company have been located there and, if so, might the local authority be able to help you find out more ? Only a thought, HTH.

RR have a History department ask them Regards Peter

Will give it a go, thanks

I know the area, just can't imagine anything as sordid as a coachworks in Bickley.

They did stuff for RR didn't they Mutterer ? BTW like many places Bickley has 2 halves - the nice bit with houses in the £1-£3m range.
Ahhhhh.... if only I'd invested more wisely !
