80s no name frames, that all the shops did?

[Jiveman60]

I had a few, a Birds of Colidale and Reg Barnett. They were nice frames, but they weren't Reynolds or Columbus, and the ends weren't stamped.
So any idea where these were produced?

Autostrada usually built frames for other people to badge as their own.

You might be getting confused with Roger Kowalski who, for a time, built frames in Harry's basement. The image below shows Roger building and Harry filing lugs - probably about as close to frame building as he ever got. Roger also built for Clive Stuart in Stoke-on-Trent for a while - but that's another story altogether
