gb1,
Here are some of my Dads motors, he started international in about 1970 with the Foden for Beresfords and then moved to Comarts in 71 were he had the Big J and moved on to Scania and Volvo
The following 2 photos are of an ERF he had to go and fetch after it had caught fir e on the French side of Mont Blanc, he wnet with his Big j (seen in the background of the 1st photo) with a lowlaoder, he left late Thursday night and got back in the yard Monday dinner time, you’d have to go some to do that run now, let alone in 72 when there were hardly any motorways !!!
There are more photos on my thread dedicated to my Dad & Comarts link below
Hope you enjoy
Regards
Ant
