Bewick:
The Eaton Concrete Products ERF Steer bears an old Westmorland C.C. Reg No. “JM 7740” and the only firm that might have been the original owner that I can think of would have been The Shap Granite Co Ltd. with Westmorland being a fairly small and sparsely populated County . So it would be interesting to find out this motor’s history. One possibility is Eaton and Shap Granite were in the same industry so I wonder if there was some sort of “tie up” maybe ? Cheers Bewick.
PS nearest I can get is the prefix “JM” was used between Dec 1931 and Nov 1950.
Morning Dennis,
The Eaton’s ERF is a 1948 model and was new to a W Holden? Cheer’s Pete (NMP)
