wonder does the pub sign survive ?

I thought that as well.

This old girl still works 6 days a week,covering approx 30 miles per day delivering fruit and veg to pubs,restaurants,hotels etc.
I see the lorry and driver every Monday in Penzance.
He’s owned the D Series since the early 70’s.

thanks for the info.
It’s a great lorry!

Your right there fryske she is a good looking little lorry, drove lot’s of them in my time and loved them.

Yes,and as the picture shows-a credit to its owner-as they say.IIRC this Scania replaced a Guy Big J 4 wheel tipper that this man ran for a lot of years-again,always immaculately presented.

Here’s some pics of my old girl still working,

The Cargo has been used regularly on my housebuild & recently sold it to A tractor enthusiast who is going to use it to take his tractor to rallies & shows - Only had 27,000 miles on the clock @ 22 years of age

The Old Yank (White Road Commander 2) had only 175.000 kms when i sold it to a Scottish Operator

The ERF is still in use (not many of these about now - If any - plenty of EC’s stuill earning their keep - but this is an EC8)

I overtook this on the M1 sth bnd between J26 - J25 a couple of months ago… Apparrantly its just used to transport his own traction engine… Think the lad’s from leicester… Still nice to see it being used…

wheeltapper:
This Ex-Killingbeck ERF was working still about 18 months ago.(Not seen her since)

■■■■■■■ E290 was fitted at the time / and sounded well, and she was doing about 3 days aweek from Cheshire to Carlisle.

Was flying when I saw it…
