Although i took it myself, this is one of my favourite shots,
A AEC Matador doing what the Gods invented Matadors for.
Pottering about with trees in mud, wreathed in wood smoke.
PRE 19W, clearing Vines Park for renovation of the area.

Few more from the NE
The script looks like ELLIOTTS of York if I’m not mistaken Tyneside.

The Ford Anglia 105E model on the transporter came out 1959, I had a good buddy who had a 1963 two tone maroon and light grey one.

Got to admit I hadn’t noticed that angle box on the transporter or I would have thought twice about the date of the photo, thanks for Pointing it out.

That is Elliots, they were based on the old airfield at Rufforth.

I watched a program just yesterday about the last Tram to run in Glasgow early 60’s. It showed a Tram being taken to a museum by one of Elliott’s of York Scammell Highwayman and lowloader, the unit had the same writing along the back of the cab roof. The LAD cab was also launched at the 1958 Comm Motor Show just before the Ford Anglia appeared so does put that photo around 1959 to early 60’s. Franky.
Some of a long steel haulier from the past, Buzzer
Hi Dan. Merc’s looking nice. Looks as if you have an increased workload, your fleet is growing.
Always good to see hard work payoff.

Thanks to pyewacket947v, tyneside, Punchy Dan and Buzzer for the pics.
Elliot’s Foden on The Stray at Harrogate, all credit to SCP for the photo.

Reg, LUY ■■?
Abandoned Austin Loadstar,
The coach built bodywork seems to have
fared better than the cab and front end.
Someone went to the trouble of specifying
covered rear wheel arches,

Interesting hubs on Elliots Foden 6x4 there. What’s that about?

They are the manually selected double reduction hubs, you turned the two ‘bobbins’ on them with a tommy bar.
