Hiya Malc,two nice shots there,what was the date approx?I remember that Malc Woodhouse bought an 8 wheeler Atki tipper along with what he told me was a lucrative job from the Quarry to Preston with dust.The regular driver came with the motor as well but I can’t re-call his name although MW spoke well of him! Cheers Dennis.

Hi Dennis,
Talking to David Bradshaw today the driver of the 8 wheeler
was Dereck Rigby ? The dust went to Cottamhall Brickworks Fullwood nr Preston
3 loads a day.
The reason MW spoke well of him was he used to chauffer
MW around probably to North End!
P.S David said he once bought a Atki unit from you because it
had a good radio in it but when he went to collect it radio had
dissapeared along with anybody who might have known about it !!

Cheers Malc.

Hiya Malc,All the Best to you for 2011! I can’t re-call the sale of the Atki,but if I sold something “as seen” it was delivered in that condition! Maybe the radio was the drivers property which they did occaisionlly fit in the workshop.I did used to have to lay down the law sometimes as the fitters would have picked the carcasses clean on those motors I sold!!! Get me a reg no and I’ll have a think on it! Dennis.
