Those could be either S60 or S70 cabs, both looked the same but the S60 was all steel and the S70 fibreglass. A roomy cab, sprung of course, and I knew a few lads who drove them and reckoned they were comfy. Tilcon had some but not in our area, they could be fitted with the Gardner 8 potter.

Top one is in the standard Fodens works livery, bottom one could be either Steetley or Redland as Redlands took over Steetley.

Good news, she stands well. I spy the spare wheel bracket, what joy was had trying to put the wheel back on it. hopefully without getting squashed by passing motors. My next motor was Erf with a wire wind up affair, took the death defying manoeuvre out the frame thank God. Wheel swapping was a god awful job, mind you waiting for the tyre company could test your patience somewhat!! Is it illegal now? Cheers Coomsey
