Thanks for the info on the ARC Leyland Daz.

albion1938:
“DEANB” “Froggy55” Some odds and sods.

20 mpg (about 14 litres / 100 kms) is certainly very good. That was the consumption of my 2001 Range-Roger P 38.

It’s a fact that there was a time when my late brother would bring his 3 x boys down to London from Huntingdon in his Commer at the weekend to see granny and grandad on the basis that;

1. the boys loved the ride in dad’s lorry
2. it was cheaper on fuel than his 3.3 Vauxhall Cresta
   Bernard

Bernard, Thats a classic that it was cheaper to take the truck !

Chris Webb:
I think the Volvo F88 KEE 575P is one of N.Mager’s from East Halton,North Lincs.

Cheers Chris.

Good morning, re: HS Williams I believe that back in the day they operated from a yard which was situated in Whitchurch just past Truckers ( if it’s still called that ) heading towards Ross. The garage I believe was opposite the pub which is still there. After that the yard was on the old road and part of it could be seen on the right just before Truckers

Hey, Never to late, to put a Fuller in it.

Eric,

There were a few people that popped fullers in Volvo’s and Scania’s Eric. Could be wrong but i think you could have a fuller
in a Volvo in Australia.

The Australians converted all sorts of stuff for there market. Look at the Scammell Contractors which they converted into 8 wheelers.

They had a place at Kegworth as well, my mate was an OD hauling for them and that could be his Transcon.
