As you seem to do these days, whilst clicking here and clicking there on the net, found myself viewing an ABC doco
from 1966 called, "The New Charioteers".

Just after the start, came these couple of gems. Views of the Alec Mildren showroon in 1966 (93-95 William St), complete with a Giulia sedan parked out front. Also attached a grab of the 'static display' engine they had for all to see.

I know of the site out at Pymble (my Berlina has that stenciled under the bonnet) but this was news to me.

(newspaper article, https://www.newspapers.com/article/8300485/alec_mildren_motors_second_showroom_4/)

Griffon Motors also sponsored a young Colin Bond and others for the Bellett GT in various motorsport events.

Please comment if you have any stories to tell.

I've included a pic of the site as it stands now, doesn't look like much has changed.

Cheers,

Paul.
