It’s not very big, but I like it, it’s quirky, a Piaggio I think, but feel free to correct me. 0

That’s actually a Daihatsu Midget. There is a tenuous connection with Piaggio though, as they built Daihatsu Hijets under licence.

No need to be embarassed Kev, I only know because I worked for a Daihatsu dealer at the when that was new, the model was never imported here but I spent a few days at Daihatsu UK HQ, they had several strange models there for evaluation.

Hi Oily, I am certain that the body on that Albion is Ex Ripponden & District, Parcel Carriers.
Ripponden are on the Lancashire to Yorkshire old routes across the Pennines thread.

Kind Regards, Ray Smyth.

If I had to choose just one favourite photo of a lorry, I think this would be it. It just " smells " the very essence of all I remember of that era of wagon driving.
Thanks so much for posting.
Regards. John.
