A good few years ago I met a certain Mr ‘Loose Change’ at the Southend Transport Festival, mostly old buses but a few trucks, and he was proudly displaying one of Service Garage wreckers, the previously featured Volvo F16. I was that taken with it, and the fact that it used to be a tractor unit on international work (I was young and impressionable then!) he promised to bring some photos on the Sunday, which he duly did, and then suprised me by giving them to me. What a nice man! Anyway, managed to find them Lenny, and here they are, including a nice couple of shots of the F16 when brand spanking new.

Had pic laying around of the F16 in the Ontime colours. I used to like it when i first see it as a wrecker at ontime, but you know, looking back at the pics of it as an artic in Service Garage colours, looked much more better.

This old gal is still alive rusting away in a yard Poole Dorset. Best shots I could get from where I was

Hi one and all well I am back with a vengeance the last two year’s after losing my wife
has been very difficult for me and have struggled big time to come to terms with it all
but 7 month’s ago when I was at the lowest I had been I met a wonderful woman called
Carolyn who was also very down and we are now engaged to be married and life could not be better for me and her
I could not of got this far if it had not been for my family close friend’s and my old mucka’s that I have met
through my time in transpot you have all been fantastic and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
it may have appeared to some of you that I was ignoring you or had forgotten about you that is not the case I just had so much to deal with I really did have trouble handling it all. I am now living with my Fiance in ASH in Kent my mobile number is the same 07768696214 and I am now on Skype Robert Cairns 19 (my age) I am on face book under Bob Cairns
and hope to get back to the fold ASAP once again “THANK YOU ALL” FOR YOUR HELP
BOB

Congratulations Bob.

I hope that you both have a long & happy life together.
