I’ve managed to find some more photos kindly passed on by tank builders, looking through all the other threads I think they fit here rather than starting a new one. I’ve posted some in other threads but will add them here. Apologies if you’ve seen them before
I’ve Researched some of the names and suspect that some of the companies in the photo’s evolved into companies still around today (or only recently finished) some obvious some not so obvious
I often think that we are overtaken by technology, but when you look at some of the older trucks and tankers its quite often the wheel re-invented.
An old mate was telling me about the cruise control on the Scammell, a brass handle through the engine cover that apparently locked the fuel pump, although you had to manaally release it, OK unless you had to stop in a hurry !
