History

My car was purchased by my father in 1950 after he finished his Medical Officer Service during World War 2.and came back to home Town, Thrissur .Those days only a few cars seen on roads and there was no traffic blocks in any roads in India. I am very excited to ride with my father during my school days. I also observed the cars working while I travel and learned driving at teenage with my father sitting in front. At the age of 18 I took my Driver"s license with this car and it was very hard to take H since the car turning radius is high due to the knee action suspension .

The most adventurous trip I made with this car in 1975 was to Munnar to Kodaikannel through deep forest road made by British Army during World War 2 to Ev acute troops quickly to Cochin Port from Kodai military camp as hummers were spread about possible Japan bombing at kodai military base.Now this road is not roadworthy due to trees and Elephants and wildlife population .Munnar to Kodai is only 81 kms via Mattupetty, Top Station. The other road to Kodai is about 162 Kms . Both these places are nice Hill stations in South India and are most beautiful places to see
