Dean, The 2 yellow lorries are Morris-Commercial The British Army had hundreds of them.
Straight 6 cylinder petrol engine, and 4 wheel drive. Regards, Ray.
Hi Dean
The SEVALCO Scania I think was a BRS contract lorry & the Tautliners were like that as the carbon black that they carried was loaded from bins over head in tall ton type bags or steel bins.
When we loaded them on flats or tilts we were luck enough to get very black as we had to sheet them.
They were based in Avonmouth & if my memory serves my right it was The Severn Valley Company
Cheers

Praills breakdown truck was apparently a Diamond T, fitted with an AEC engine. It’s ‘regular’ driver was the workshop foreman Lou, who I’m sure is driving it here.
Well I’m glad that the BMC advert for the FJ series showed the cab in the raised position as that was how they were for a lot of the time while doing numerous engine swaps under warranty and beyond!

Thanks for your comments “kmills” but Oily has the right one there.To be honest alot of those trucks from that
period seem to look similar with the bonnets.

Defiantly Unigate possibly off to have logos applied, although normally done in house so a bit unusual1
