Punchy Dan:
Wasn’t there another Atki conversion from Norfolk with a 350 ■■■■■■■ fitted possibly pulled a tipper trailer ?
There certainly was: Terry Godbold’s Borderer, HER 806N - bought from Knowles/Wisbech Roadways as a 2-year-old in 1977, as I recall.
At some point, the 220 ■■■■■■■ was dragged out and replaced with a 14 litre 250, a tag axle was added to run at 38T and then a turbo ■■■■■■■ went in, I think from a Transcon.
The last update was a trip to Longton Coacraft in Leyland for a sleeper pod and new paint job - it had run in the Knowles orange until then
