Looking For

Hi,

New to this site would be great to hear if anyone comes across an old lorry on there travels. XAW 975 S an ERF B series 6 wheeler. Was my Dad’s in WLR Gwilt livery. I think it was 1994 when it was taken off road…as a young 26 years old vehicle. Last I heard on a farm in Bridgenorth, Shropshire.

Thanks

It hasn’t been taxed since 2001, so I doubt it’s still in use.

Cheers Roymondo it was sold to a farmer so maybe no need to be taxed. Hope the old girl not scrapped. But I have no space or cash to get even if it’s still alive

Thought I would add some scans on photo’s I found at my parents. WLR Gwilt ERF B Series

I’d be prepared to put money on that last photo being taken at the lay-by on the shores of Llyn Ogwen, on the A5 between Bethesda and Betws-y-Coed, not Anglesey

you might be right. Not asked my dad yet.

Hopefully this will work, and you will see a photo I took a few years ago from not quite the same location. There are a couple of laybys there - one has a low wall, the other one does not, but if you look at the rock formations and mountains in the background it’s obviously the same place.
