Sorry about the shot of the T cab , but it was about a half a K from the road and dad was doing about 110 kph at the time.
The tanker was on us with out much warning so I was lucky to get anything at all. I.m still getting used to my new telephoto lens…

Just a couple of shots of my 142
If we return to a golden era in the early 1980’s
Merc’s finest was the 1628…280hp
DAF 2800…280hp
Volvo F12 in UK spec a mincing 305hp
And what was pulling like a nutter over the hill in front…you have it.
Hell on earth the coal tip at Kingsnorth.
Waiting to backload in Cartagena.
This did sort out the riffraff.
1800 Friday out of the Cartagena truck park after getting the OK from the vet.
Midnight Saturday in Calais.
04.00 Covent Garden Sunday.
Is this Steve Trices Scania■■?

This is one that my Dad drove for Bulldog International.
its main route was to Italy and back.
if anyone knows if its still in the UK some where could they let me know.
Browsing through this thread and I find this picture.
I drove C382TLP an 82H six wheeler with a factory rear lift axle and a curtainsider body, its just a ‘me’ thing but I like to see what the previous and following registration’s throws up and here is C383TLP. Incidently C381TLP is SORN’d on the GOV website.
Looks relatively unmolested, apart from those welds along the top flange of the chassis. I bet there is a crack starting from the end of every run.

Quite some years ago…in their striking livery
Yes indeed! A very professional company which is still operating today.

What a great looking motor esp with the spot lamps in the bumper
Very smart

i drove this one for a while , it was the first wagon i had after i passed my test ( that picture was taken the week after i passed outside my house ). ignore the name plate that belonged to the bloke i took it over from , infact it was him that made sure i could drive it …
just as an aside , i should have been given the keys to an f89 as my first one but it had a radiator problem so i got this one instead … how lucky was i …■■
