Hello again,heres another bunch of oldies,Cheers Bubbs, 
At last a Philip Crouch motor, brings back a lot of memories. Can’t work out the drivers name, all the motors
have the drivers name on the front. My late dad drove for them from about 73 till they closed.
On closer inspection it looks like John B, who came from Headcorn the same as us.

That AEC MM of Harrisons. I think that’s me sitting in the mates seat.
Plenty of tasty pictures! Was the Ford Custom chinese six a standard axle display, or a conversion?

I don’t know why but ‘Greedy’ boards always give wry smile, maybe because you never see them now!
A little story about the Harrisons AEC. I was only a young van lad, no licence, and every Monday morning we fired em up to move them out of the garage. Your hero (me) jumps in the AEC, fired it up and took it out into the yard, Nobody had told me about the red air pressure arm (no spring brakes in those days) wall looming, pressed the brake…nothing. damaged the wall and badly bent the trailer pushing bar, luckily it didn’t get the radiator.

A conversion probably by Primrose as many of the light weight motors like Bedford,B.M.C aswell.There wouldn’t be enough of a market for that sort of spec with those manufacturer.You may have seen a Bedford 8 wheeler too well photograhed and probably a few more.

They were certainly not common but we did have Bedford TK rigid-eights here in UK. Robert
Great pics Bubbs 
That KV of Harold Reads is a handsome motor - I would love one of those…
The little D-series is also a little cracker. Very work worn and a completely unloved look about it but what a little gem
The Maggie of JK Febry’s was a very handsome machine. Lovely two tone blue colour scheme… When Joe finished up, this one was bought by a relation - John Febry - who ran it as an O/D from all the local quarries in the area. He replaced it with an early FL10 eight wheeler in 1987-88 ish. A really gentle driver and a lovely bloke, he was taken ill and passed away suddenly some years ago now.
Pity Harold’s ERF wasn’t in colour- it looked fabulous. The second ERF in his fleet, I believe, the other being an AD reg in similar livery.

Would that have been in the deep red/maroon colour RoF?
Lovely colours…
