Harley’s Garage

Written By Mark Moran

The kind of place where the owner had everything. He would disappear and rummage around returning a few minutes later with precisely the right part.

The doors now closed with cars still on the ramp, now coated in a carpet of bird poo. Boxes of service parts and job books piled high, pre computer and customer WiFi.

Hand painted signage from the days before laser cut vinyl and futuristic neon.

Forecourts and petrol pump attendants. Ahh... the smell.
