Interesting hubs on Elliots Foden 6x4 there. What’s that about?

They are the manually selected double reduction hubs, you turned the two ‘bobbins’ on them with a tommy bar.

Pete.

Thanks for that Pete!

Abandoned Austin Loadstar,
The coach built bodywork seems to have
fared better than the cab and front end.
Someone went to the trouble of specifying

Some of a long steel haulier from the past, Buzzer

I wonder if Septimus Cook was related to Siddle Cook,both from the North East?

David

He was the youngest brother, there were eleven children!

Pete.

[buzzer]

Just noticed the picture I posted of Septimus Cook lorry had the number plate which started SPT just wondering if that was intentional or a fluke as today many companies have initials on purchased plates for there trucks, Buzzer

[buzzer]

Another early shot from the past, Buzzer
