Couple of working gals !!Indeed they are, Coomsey, I did love that model, had one at K&M as well as a couple of other Fodens. The driving position was so cosy, sat up high in your seat with the wheel tucked neatly in your lap,
Even though I passed my test in one, and drove plenty of S36/S39/S40 and S50 as a fitter, I found the steering wheel was mounted too low down and had to twist my left leg around between the wheel and gearlever to work the clutch. I did plenty of engine and gearbox rebuilds on them though! Better for me when the S80 etc cabs came in with the adjustable column.

I was obviously skinnier than you then, Pete.
Wouldn’t brag about getting into one now though.
