Hi Oily, 50 years ago last August I started my haulage career as Jim Lawsons’s first full time driver on a Mouth Organ fronted Leyland Comet progressing to a new LAD cabbed Albion Clydesdale a few weeks later. Happy days hauling sheep from ■■■■■■■ and the Borders to Liverpool and Banbury.
Cheers, Leyland 600.
