Reunion is planned for those who worked at South Yorkshire Motors.

The event is organised by Les Ellis and Mick Hodgson who joined the Ford main dealers as apprentices in the mid-1950s, when the works manager was Laurence Judge.

The dealership became part of Calderford Motors in 1972, and the premises were later demolished to make way for housing.

If you are interested in going along to the reunion please contact Mick Hodgson 07708 791226 or just turn up on the night.
