Here,s another Davies truck with Scac trailer, was driven bywinkyi think.
Looks like this one,s been re-loaded with fertiliser from Avonmouth which we
sometimes did after tipping in Neath i think it was. ( bit ofbuncefor Buzzer )
Mappo, is this truck likely to be HWL 972S ?
I have a picture of the above reg and it is a six wheeler F12. Do you know anything about it, or can you tell me anything about it? Don’t worry if not.

Yes we pulled for them out of Portsmouth and before that out of Southampton.
Regards Pat
thanks what years were they can you remember
pulled one for s jones of aldridge once
Sorry Dai cannot remember what years we pulled for them must have been the eighties I remember from Portsmouth I think Ing’s and C A steven’s were on there as well as Maggs.
Regards Pat
Evening Pat, you were spot on about Ings and CA Stevens on for scac it was aruond 84 ish your trucks were on there i remember Tutty was on there with us, i worked for Ings back then he had about 7 trucks on that work, Much cleaner than that horrid tipper work. Think Dave Tutt had a brand new Sania if i remember right,
Yes he had KOW496Y a brand new Scania143 in 1982 I had a Granning air lift tag axel fitted in about 83/84 and that was how it was on SCAC then went on to RH&D out of Poole.
Heres a pic before the conversion with a Jameson Kangaroo trailer
Here’s apic of a Scania 111 that had a daycab and we were converting it to a sleeper by welding on the back and roof of a smashed Sparks of Glastonbury 141! with a SCAC trailer in my yard with a young looking John Shaw.
Wasn’t John Cornelius from west country on there as well??
Regards Pat
Yeah John Cornelius From Yeovil Remember him well, Still doing the tippers i think. Im having trouble seeing any pictures on this site ‘SO ANNOYING’ coz i’de like to of seen them, All your photo’s sound good. I will have to get it sorted. Any ideas■■? Im only getting a white box with a red cross in■■? Where the pic would be. I Got loads of photo’s to put on soon also.
