40 years ago this week .......
The Linwood car assembly plant near Glasgow ceased operations after assembling nearly half a million vehicles, most famously the Hillman Imp. 6,000 men and women lost their jobs.
The Imp is looked upon quite favourably in classic car circles these days. I remember my father had one in the early ‘70’s and an Avenger which was also assembled at Linwood. I fear the same fate awaits Jaguar employees following their recent EV announcement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
