Leyland Lorries

[1970commer]

Thats the one Pete, Gavin had CTV280T and Micheal had CTV279T a dropside tipper, Len Summers must have thought all his Christmasses had come at once that year, he worked as a salesman at Kays at the time, Denis bought those 2, my dad bought CTV296T, Herbert Hambleton bought CTV277T, Andrew Brassington and Alan Harrison both had new Clydesdales but I can’t remember the reg of those 2. Work was plentiful then though.

A better picture of one of Denis Salts’ Leyland Clydesdales BRE476T just out of the garage after a repaint

It looks well in that pic Rob! Is that Clydesdale flat the one that Gavin had new and ran it from Hulland Products?

Hi all,

Just thought I would start a thread about Leyland Lorries for themselves
Others seem to have their own so why not Leyland?

Here is a start.

Hope people will contribute?

Leyland in Spain with T.M.U cab.

[nz_jamie]

That’s a cracker mate,it’s a Buffalo with a locally made Spanish cab.

They had a longer bonnet than the Super Beaver’s and Hippo’s with three vents along the side instead of two.

They were fitted with the huge Albion ‘900’ 17 litre 6 cylinder motor. These looked very much like a Leyland 680,but much bigger.

They were an export only model half a dozen came to NZ with many more to OZ. The Spanish also had lots of these.

A Christmas cracker for you from the days when men were men and lorries were…well hard work to drive. But if you had a Leyland of that era they were one of the best. A mince pie to anyone who can identify the location (still recognisable today). Seasons greetings to everyone from Gingerfold.

Is it the A65 between Skipton and the M6 or could it be the A59? I’m being a bit vague

The Cross Keys at East Marton - where the A59 goes over the Leeds-Liverpool canal.
