That’s a tidy FL10. I love it. I think it’s great seeing old motors still working.
It’s immaculate and it sounds well too.

saw this 93 on A46 the other day
Cheers AdeI’ve seen this one about in the Cotswolds. I wonder if it’s ex Hills of Swindon? Red cab and Boweld body…
I think he was a local lad Evesham/Cheltenham area and has had the lorry for about 10 years
This was working on the Ice Rink just off Princes Street in Edinburgh
Looked really clean for it’s age!

P reg.
They dont come heavier loaded than this Foden 8 wheeler ! Photographed on Maltas little sister island of Gozo , the Foden appears a trifle overloaded .
Just work on each bag being 25 kilos , and 40 bags on each pallet, and then count the number of pallets , etc…
Now that will take a bit of handballing if the forki is not handy.
That challenge would frighten some of todays so-called tough drivers. " Right, lads,............Ill count the bags off as you lot carry `em down that alley and to the far end of the barn " ! 
Cheers, cattle wagon man.
That old foden,
Oh my God, lol, it looks as if the back four pallets - double stacked too - are overhanging the tail end. Awesome picture, awesome truck, but not sure I’d want to drive it loaded like that. By my reckoning there’s 32 tons on the back of it.

Spotted this old gem, still doin a turn in Luxembourg last week
Cracking truck back In the day…
Very under rated. Had one for a bit, incredibly comfortable motor and went well enough when you tweaked them too. Once you got her wound up she’d sit at 75 all day
They were definately more comfortable and better looking than the premium, drove a 365 on a G-plate years ago ! and was mighty impressed, went backwards with the premium for me…
Was the 420 turboliner a V8?

I’m going to sound incredibly sad now, but I don’t care. To have a blast in that would be better than ■■■. There, I said it

Hi ezydriver,
Thanks for the comment. To see a load of feed stacked like that , makes the legs buckle.
I reckon the overhang takes the grunt out of the (possible) non power steering.
The sheet draped over the back of the last pallets will stop them overbalancing if the driver is rough on the clutch pedal.
The old Country Music song " Sixteen Tons" was written for that photograph. When the record was released , it was
a double- A side, - that is,- if you are old enough to remember the 45 R.P.M. vinyl records. 
Cheers, cattle wagon man.
