Just see your post , When I was a kid my dad drove for Ron wood and Jimmy Mace . I’m unable to view your posted photos but it sounds like the trucks your taking about where all parted down ridham docks …
I’d love to see the photos you have or any that any body Else has as all the photos that were taken when I was a child got lost In a house move ten years ago
One of Ron woods streamliners just sol on eBay for £8000
He was running a mixed fleet of Scania 131 , 111 , 2 X 143m a Volvo F89 , G88 , F16 , F10 , F12 leyland Marathon, Ford cargo & ERF B Series . Have searched the net but have found no photos
no 4 series here!!!
sorry about the quality, they were scanned in and my scanner isnt great and is playing up a bit at the mo…
i have a lot more, when i can be bothered to scan some more in i will update the thread
hope you enjoy…
Nice pics there mate, especially the 111 at the top. Is that stoneguard big enough on the Atwell motor not sure about the chrome blokes on the front of the white yellow and red 143 either though I loved the143 i had, i dont think there was anything better on the road at the time, everyone wanted to have one.
is that you posing with it!!! i think they were the pinnacle in scanias career, downhill from there!!
that pink one was driven by some woman, well she was female but not very lady like!!
thanks both of you ,very nice photos all round,
