A potted history of SCA |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Back in the 1980's, after being made
redundant with the demise of British Crane Hire, we made the decision to
go it alone. First starting as a mobile vehicle welder trading as
Stort Welding and Auto panels. |
After a couple of years on the road
premises were acquired in Bishops Stortford Herts. |
There we were often asked for other parts,
so gradually Stort Car Accessories was born. |
|
|
|
|
Because of our own involvement in
motorsport i.e Autocross,Rallycross & Rallying we started being ask
for more & more performance parts.
Stort Car Accessories was shortened to 'SCA'. |

Stortford with a very 'special' member of staff waiting to greet you.
However the premises were now out grown so the hunt was on for something
bigger. |
In 1990 we decided to relocate to Norwich
and have never looked back. These were our original premises in Page
Road. At first we had a small tyre fitting area but this soon filled up
with accessories and stock as more display area was required. |

Ex tyre bay now more display area at Page
Road. |
For three years we serviced every
Snetterton Race meeting. |
|
|
|
|
| We also had trade stands at grass track
meetings such as Peterborough, Cambridge, Mildenhall. |
We attended many Short Oval meetings
at Swaffham, Skegness, Boston & Yarmouth. |
As the business flourished the unit in Page
Road was outgrown and the hunt was on for bigger premises to incorporate
a dedicated workshop. This land was acquired in 1998 and Performance House
was built. |
