Site of Macdonalds (West Derby) Garage in 2014

A company called Macdonald's (West Derby) Garage Limited still exists. They started 03 Feb 1966. I think the firm is now acting as the landlord of the premises.

As of April 1995 there were 2 directors named V R McDonald and J G McDonald.

I can see from dealer directories that the firm were first listed in 1965 when known as Macdonalds (West Derby) Garage were listed again in September 1968, March 1970, March 1972 and March 1974 as Macdonalds (West Derby) Garage Limited.

The building was later used by Link Motor Factors as can be witnessed by the ghost sign that on the wall in 2014.
