Hiya curnock…its the other way round, its happened to me and bubbleman if you put photo,s on TN some people are then downloading
them and selling them on E Bay. so you let me have a photo i then put it onto TN… then some other S… downloads them and sells them
for £3.50/£5.00 a go . you then think thats my photo my money…so bubbs scrawls his name all over the print Don,t blame him.

Lovely job, but I can’t help thinking that the one hooked up to the tent would look a lot better with a coating of dirt giving it a more authentic look, it’d probably make you cry after all the hard work you’ve done & the people on the road rallies would have a heart attack, but it would look the business IMO
This is one of 5 ex Essex Int. 112s I bought XHK600X/FNO82Y/A937MPU/A938/A939 This is a shot of A937 coupled to a Fruehauf tri.on the Crooklands road bridge over the A591.

Gonna be one fine model this one. I’m not missing out on this like I did the Astran. The Kerbey Motors R series looks good aswell, might have to add that to the collection too.
Thanks for all the photos Chalkey.
Very much so and they are being snapped up on pre-orders like hot cakes according to the chap at kerbeymotors.com!!
Both these 111s ended their days with HEAVYHAUL Chelmsford limited. The White 111 was soon laid up for spares for two others, MEP 353 P and VVW 909S {yes it was a 111 in a previous life!}. I dont know wether PWC was ever owned by ESSEX Int, but underneath that white paint job was a BRAIN Haulage livery. The cab was totaly shot on this one!!
