JW Johnson Export

Post by Keving » Sun Oct 30, 2022 3:06 pm

268 Carr House Road
Bell Vue
Doncaster, England

Does anyone know anything about this business? Trying to find out if this Company exported my car to the US.
A sticker with this company name is attached to the windscreen on my car TC 1681.
Thanks for any help

When I did a Google search of "JW Johnson Export", one of the first results was this thread. Unfortunately that suggests that it may be a challenge to solve this mystery. But I wish you luck!

Could it be that the sticker was some sort of parking permit for an employee there?

The only mention of the car itself I can find is at the following link:

Do a search of the name and address and you get a list of British Gliding Association inspectors under the alphabetically listed "ordinary inspectors." His name and that address. Probably his home address. List from 1977. Page 2 of ordinary inspectors. Maybe he ran an export company out of his house?
