Whilst poking around the museum at the Valor chocolate factory near Benidorm last week, I came across this picture.
Anyone have any ideas what it might be? Did Atkinson ever build anything in Spain?
(It is a 2 axle rigid with a dropside body - couldn’t get it all in the photo)

Hi there Its an Atkinson Logo, & Thats All IMO, Regards Larry.
Plenty of locally-cabbed Atki’s here:

It looks like a Spanish or Portuguese cab. Here’s another:

Worth a trawl through here:

See the Pegaso thread. International Harvester owned Seddon Atkinson who were supplied with cabs. DAF and Pegaso used the same Cabtec one
There were certainly Atkinsons with locally built cabs in Portugal and I photographed some in the '80s. Not sure about Spain. I took the 2nd pic in '86. Robert
