yvon59.fr/photos2/yvon59/nos … /index.htmThe pic of the lorry with all the ladies and children , barrels on the lorry reminds me of my bosses in the 60s . They certainly got every last mile out of the tires . My French is very patchy , I would love to read the text on the photos properly , teacher should have taught me when I was listening ! Dave
You should have payed attention at school Rigsby…instead of playing around pinging those mucky girls bras behind the caretakers shed…

ALM with Panhard engine and like a Citroen cab built by “Carrosserie de Levallois”…
Michel…what year was this ?..also, was this for the military and for the Africa market…?
Built specially for oil drilling in French Sahara in the 1950s. Cab is indeed a Carrosserie de Levallois; well seen!
Afternoon Mr Fergie,
I have stopped smoking mate so that is one “sign” i have not got to make, the only other French I can remember is large beer and complete crepe, the last phrase just like my French as well as my driving!! Cheer’s Pete

Boats…never designed to go on a trailer, they really don’t like it …to add to the drivers woes, no Autoroutes either, if you get one 1000+ kms without a scratch, you’re good…

Is that the reason why I’ve never had any boats or yachts on the trailer then Senior…?
Last pic is a stunner mate, cheers!
