You’re certainly right about that!
I had this when I first started driving. Trouble was, it’s previous driver had used “Easy-Start” on it, and it had become addicted to the stuff.

We ran an A series for about 3 months, a pig to start, and drank the juice. Nice to drive though, replaced it with a leyland terrier.

Cheers Bubbs,
hello bubbleman.
you posted a picture earlier of a mack truck with a mention of mack bolton , do you have any pictures of the place by any chance ? the company was known as seven star mack , only i remember going down to the place when i was a youngster and looking over the wall , i still live about a quarter of a mile from where it was . i do believe they later moved to chorley to a main dealer for mack trucks …
Hi Bowser,no mate ,sorry…I only kept the pics of Mack lorries,as I’ve remarked in the past I never thought that 30 odd years after cutting out the pics that the writing bit would be important plus other odds and sods…cant turn the clock back 
Bubbs,

Bubbs,
you’ve posted more than a few important ones bubbs believe me , you’ve posted at least two that bring back memorys for me anyway , and funnily enough one of them was a paper cutting of a mack that my stepdad drove and that was built in bolton , i remember it had a little plate on the inside of the door and it said seven star mack bolton … it may well have been in the yard while i was looking over the wall as a kid.
keep it up chap they are all important to somebody . and a big thanks from me .

Pig ugly but someone must have loved it!
Reminded me of a Bulldog crossed with an ugly Staffie. The abattoir next to me replaced a Bedford J5 with one, the replacement was forever in the Ford workshop
