Hi
This is where a staggering amount of 40s 50s 60s and some 70 trucks ended up nr Stevenage, Trucks we’ve enjoyed looking at on this site will be
in this photo rotting away, You’ll only find one f88 thats rotten, If your desperate for parts you’ll find them here but its a buisness so you’ll not get
them for nothing. Good Luck Part’s Hunting !!!

hiya,
Bubbs, I wish i’d a bob for every mile i’ve done in an identical set up as No1 of this last batch, those old Bristols would run forever and with no problems, those trailers from the Bristol works where a perfect match and made a spot-on driving outfit, if only eh.
thanks harry long retired.
