I know this is cruel but it had to be done.
I was in Guildford doing a delivery. i turned down this street to make my way to a loading bay as Mr Warden was knocking about. As i turned down that street i noticed this bloke telling a bus to slow down. I then noticed his big camera around his neck and i just timed it right to park my van right in front of him whilst he took the picture. I noticed the bus driver was in fits, but i swear the bloke was going to cry
I know, but i couldn’t help it
Perhaps not truck related but in India I was trying to get a pic of an old Austin Cambridge taxi (still made over there as Ambassadors), taxi driver saw me but a a lot of traffic got between us, next thing the taxi pulled up at the side of me and posed for pic.

They’re all over the place these days, then they sell the pics on eBay!
Not true in every case “rsdc1” I take a few on the A76 at Sanquhar purely for my own collection and to help with my other hobby modelling trucks. Eddie.

I just typed in the reg of a 143 i got new in 1995 in flickr and there was a pic of it taken last year, pulling an old Jones International fridge. Its in Wales now, I thought it had gone to the scrapyard in the sky as i hadnt seen it since around 1999-200ish. i cant copy the flickr pic as its copyrighted

Good find Kindle! Was that an old Russell Davies motor? Shortens from North Norfolk ran a couple in their basic RD livery for a while and iirc they were a similar reg.
There must be good money in it, just look at the people standing around the photo stalls at truck shows (particularly classic ones).

No mate, here she is brand new when i got her. There were a lot of CDX’s when the M reg’s came out.
