We had two like that at our Tilcon quarry Larry, both came the same day with consecutive numbers but different cab styles. That one of Moore’s was one of the first of that type cab as they came out part way through that year.

Bottom Foden on little wheels. On dedicated garment trailer work perhaps; or some other high-volume-low-weight low-ride trailer work.
