“Punchy Dan”
Looks like a granning midlift conversion and possibly a tanker spec air kit ,id guess it belonged to or was inherited by turners ?

It’s got a AV Peterborough reg plate so could well be one of Turners of Soham Dan.

Thanks for the comments “Punchy Dan” and “Chris Webb” :wink:

Hi Dean,
H.V.Perry stood for Harry Perry who owned Wareham Transport.
Thanks again for all your work on this brilliant thread. Regards Richard

Thanks for the comments Richard,funny enough after i posted that i remembered the name Harry Perry
and knew Wareham Transport. I can only remember them running flats and bulkers and cant recall ever
seeing them running timber trucks. :smiley: :wink:
