"Heavy Haulage through the years"

Changed days for Ruttle Plant Hire low loaders (http://www.ruttle.co.uk/)

TROOPER 8011:
Foden 4400 - I & H Brown, Perth - (L404JSF):

Here is one of I & H Brown’s older DAFs.

I remember they also had a Mack which pulled their load-loader. I couldn’t find it, but did find a picture of the Mack that pulled one of their fridges (Patrick will be banning of the forum for posting a pictuer of a fridge on here). If I remember correctly the driver was called BJ from BJ and the bear. I helped him change a punctured tyre one night in Dover - many moons ago…

Good pics there Johnny,
Here is another fridge from the same company,

Keep your hair on young fella, well in a manner of speaking since you haven’t got much, actually none. [emoji16]

Please don’t phone, or I’ll be on bread and water for a week.

Interesting views of the trucks not sure I would agree with them,I owned 2 Macks both were money pits and although I drove some cab over KWs not as comfortable as a bonneted truck.
