Yes.
So Carlsberg did do Council jobs and trucks.Ploughing over time call out money would have made the waste disposal job even more dead man’s shoes.
Wonder if they also had a multi lift Gritter body for it.
That thing would have been unstoppable.
Great photos of the Kendrick motors Dean, love the olduns!

They still needed fitting (rebuilding) though Dave, unless you Buxton lads had magic wands! We carried no spares in stock, apart from a reconditioned cylinder block and a pair of bare heads, but just bought them in from Gardners as and when we needed them. We never fitted used parts and there was never any real hurry to get the truck back on the road as there was usually a spare one around. I rebuilt most of our Gardners and was allowed two weeks to do a rebuild as I had to do mot work inbetween as well. I dreaded coming back from a weeks holiday as there would usually be one parked up awaiting my return!

Dean were the DAF tippers you were thinking of belonging to E.J.Thomas from Alton ? Buzzer
Morning John,
I dont remember Mike ever having Daf, I was fortunate enough to supply most of his trucks, evan his business, Macnamara, running out of Chichester.
He did have a few subies though but i never recalled Daf.
pete smith:
Morning Dean,
E T Bentley are/were from Foston on the A50 between Burton and Uttoxeter. The yellow Scania is one of Grampian chicks.
Thanks for the Horace Kendrick material and photo’s,
Cheers Pete,thanks for the info mucker.

E.T Bentley were from Foston, Derbyshire, Dean. I bought a milking machine from one of their former drivers a few years ago.Discussed here:

Thanks Pete, a milking machine…

Looks like a Rawcliffe from Skemersdale unit to me mateThey used to have some heavy duty Nicolas trailers too, not sure if they still got them though.
Yeah you are right found a film with the same reg Patrick on Utube.
jshepguis:
Hi Dean
Guessing if heavy haulage outfit could be one of Rawcliffes?
As for the council Foden definitely snowplough attachment more than likely an Econ. Fitted many of those in my fitting days to various vehicles D series, ERF ,Maggie Duetz were what we had.Snowploughs used knock hell out of the Ford front chassis members!!
Thanks for your comments chap.
Will pop a bit on about Council Fodens and snow ploughs.

Could be Buzzer all i can remember was there were 2 DAF 8 wheelers on a job on Poole docks when i was a nipper and they
were from the Southampton area. But they never had a name and were white and that pic reminded me of them. Can never understand not having free advertising on a truck…

What would they have been a 150 gardner Pete ■■ How many miles did you get out of one roughly ■■

Thanks for the comments Harvey.
(Dean wrote) What would they have been a 150 gardner Pete ■■ How many miles did you get out of one roughly ■■
Not 150’s Dean, all ours were either 6LXB 180’s in the S39’s, S50’s and S80/83 models and 6LXC 201’s in the Haulmasters. Yes they were hard on the knees, but any truck with a non tilting cab was the same. However with the S39’s we did tilt the cab for block replacement which made it easier, it meant removing the radiator but we sent them away for testing anyway when an engine was rebuilt. Mileage varied: Tilcon had the ‘bright’ idea of running them on a synthetic oil when they were a couple of years old (they got a good deal with BP) when from new they had run on Silkoline Chatsworth 30 monograde oil and that basically knackered them as it cleaned the engine too much internally and all the carbon build up was washed away and they started using a gallon of oil daily. Next stage was ‘the Gardner smell’, a Gardner has a strange smell appear about two days before it starts knocking, and we knew then that it was nearly time to get the towbar ready! They were all disposed of after six years (Tilcon policy) and all had been rebuilt at least once. The 201’s were trouble from new though, they overheated so Gardner supplied us with modified water rails and water pump impellers for us to fit. Then they drank oil so they replaced the 201 cylinder heads with 180 ones and that cured that problem. All done under warranty though. Then Tilcon bought a fleet with Rolls 265’s, that cured the Gardner engine problems!
I remember one S83 tipper developed a knock, I towed it in and then uncoupled it to reverse it into the workshop on tickover. Our TM (■■■■ Bentley) was standing alongside me while one of the lads reversed it in when the engine suddenly ‘coughed’ and a piston gudgeon pin rolled out from under the bumper! ■■■■ looks at me and asks “Is that part expensive?” and I replied that it was nowhere near as expensive to replace as the place it came from originally will be!
