    Read excerpt

    A wartime evacuee has spoken of his delight at being reunited with a car that captured his imagination more than 80 years ago.

The reunion came about after Thrift shared his memories of the car and his time as an evacuee with his grandsons and daughter Mel, who live in Australia. "I'm so thrilled to be here today

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt
