Guy’s did have the “long door” cab which I believe was used on the Invincibles which were the heavy end of the marque. And the “high” door cab was used on their lighter motors called Warriors . I may be wrong but that is my recollection ! Cheers Bewick.

I think there was a second little step before the door on these cabs. Necessary really|
I think that the cabs were the same for both Invincible & Warrior models & the longer door was introduced in the later years of the range. Here is an early Invincible of Siddle C Cook. nmp

I would say that’s about right “push rod 47” as I can recall a firm from Millom ran a “D” reg Invincible 180 ■■■■■■■ unit and it had the long doors. This would just would be prior to the launch of the Big J . Cheers Bewick.
Thanks to Buzzer, coomsey, lurpak, steelboyf12, DEANB and pushrod47 for the pics

Spotted the 2nd step Dipster, which they don’t seem to have on the nearside, but I feel you need to be like Spiderman for it to be useful. I’d go for top of the wheel cheers coomsey

I’m thinking the pic I posted is a D reg Dennis, but could be a 0. Might they have made 2cab types similar to ERF LV, although I’ve never understood the reasoning behind that.cheers coomsey

It’s a “D” reg Coomsey so it would have been one of the last ones built I reckon. It looks like it has the double drive bogie so it would be interesting to find out what engine it had , Gardner 150 possibly ? Cheers Dennis.

The GUY MkII Warrior and Invincible models introduced 1958 used the same cab, the differences were in the engine choice, chassis, axles and springs, there were bigger engines in the Invincible, chassis rails deeper, axles heavier and springs wider. The cab noted for its waist area shelf was metal below and fibre glass above. The short door version having the wheel step ring and a foot slot to the rear of the bottom section. The MkIII was introduced in 1962 for better driver access with the set forward entry step and full door. Production ended in 1967 a good three years after the BIG J with Motor Panels cab was introduced and it seems the older Invincibles especially were still selling and beefed up with the ■■■■■■■ choice as well as the earlier Gardner, AEC and Leyland engines. Franky.
Great video of the steamers. Thanks for posting.
