Boys, girls, Dads and wagons…kids wouldn’t be allowed near them today, let alone ride in them. :unamused:

Anyone want any subject in particular ?

If you are asking Fergie then pictures of the towns and villages that we used to go through as opposed to around are, for me, a great reminder of ‘the good old days’.

Fergie, I was longing for my weekly batch of cracking pictures; you’ve done it!

This Berliet recovery truck is still rusting at the same place in Nevers.

Unlike what most of you probably think, the truck on the right is not an Unic, but one of the last French Saurer (probably a ZS), fitted with an Unic cab.

Thank you Froggy for the info…that poor old Wrecker, someone should recuce it, make a cracking 6X4 tractor unit, there’s one already on the show circuit, be nice to see another one…

Fergie, you never cease to amaze with the photos you post here. Another excellent selection. I really liked the old town photos you posted as well! Thank you.

Aah cheers mate, you’d got me worried there for a bit :wink:

Just read this article in a magazine, who would have reckoned that some piece of rust was worth a staggering €1.702.000…

Right lads, I’m off to me shed, see what I can dig up as well… :wink:

Dave. Allways interested in the heavies

All I understand is that it was bodied by Saoutchik, a famous French bodyworker, and needs complete reconstruction. No idea if the air conditionning still works…

What about this one then? Received this today, info is a bit brief but apparently it’s a Denonville and only 15 were build…?

Nice pictures but the chassis is a TDM Berliet. Camerman had no purchased vehicles from Denonville apart from perhaps spare parts for army surplus and rebuilding. Only one chassis
from Denonville Diesel survived out of in total 150 chassis produced between 1937 and 1940.
