Hi Jakey,
Nice pic mate…didn’t Charles Wood have 2 identical ones of this truck mate…seem to recall one time going to there place in Oxford…like you say always in top Nick just like yours.
Pic here I came across clearing some paperwork over the weekend.
JAKEY:
Mark ,No we never ran those , we had Commer and Doge Commandos and a later Renault Commandos ,these were great motors with perkins engines in .
When I did time with Pickfords they had an old B reg integral Marsden Dodge… that’s all I can say it was the oldest truck in the branch fleet at the time…but what a flying machine…nice truck to drive to…it also had a Perkins in it to.
Mark , I seam to recall they went well !!! I had a job getting my brother let his small 7.5t Renault go ! I told him your getting a brandnew Daf LF with a sleeper pod ,air con etc but he was very reluctant , I am now having a job persuading him to have a MAN TGL ,auto box and all the bells and whistles you could ask for .

Yes lovely pic Dean…very rare to see a Scania under a Luton body back when this truck was new…Jakey yes she is a bit high…and a bay loader…you think nothing of it today…but back then a drop well would be more in cline.
