If im not mistaken pete my dad drove that for time

 

[Cab-over Pete]

Yes, that's the one Tim. And he survived it too!!

Bloody old shed of a thing.

I think it went 48 mph top speed. Good job your Dad is a patient and steady type!

He liked it apparently

 

[Cab-over Pete]

I forgot to add he must also be as mad as a box of squirrels!

 

[Timo@hattonfarms]

Didnt he have an artic aswell ?

 

[Cab-over Pete]

We had the artic several years later. A Scania, nice little wagon that was. We also had a Volvo FL7 6 wheeler on for Berrystock Feeds at Daventry.

I like a bit of wagon driving, but don't think I would want it full time again.

It's surprisingly easy to pass, too. Way simpler than the car test

Anyone remember Graham Simms's ERF 8 wheeler with a coach built wooden cattle body? He used to take Limousins all over the country with it to agricultural shows.
I spent a lot of time admiring it as a kid,never took a pic

Lovely pictures everyone.

Come across this on the tube some time back. I have a soft spot for heavy haulage too.

Graham and Nigel used to come to the Anglesey show with that many moons ago, fantastic looking wagon that was, haven't seen simbo for ages so not sure if he's still got it.
