Fantastic find that, thanks for posting. :smiley:

I didn’t realise they used that coupling system where the legs left up automatically, on trucks that large, I thought is was only Scammell Scarabs that had them.

They were called Scammell couplings, I drove one for National Carriers back in 1978, fitted to a Bedford TK and were referred to as Urban artics.

The ROSPA award used to get them in the forces but never seen them since do they still exist?

Wally is doing well if he can afford a nice car like that, bet not many wagon drivers owned a 4 dooor saloon back then.

Think it’s a top of the range Ford Zodiac how many drivers could afford an equivalent car today?
