Cheers Bubbs,
Have you got any more Barbers pics bubbleman?
Was this converted from the batch of fridge motors that (Birds Eye?) had?
Looks like Ron Barker’s nodding off…
saw these pics at south Yorkshire transport museum ,sunday
I love the Dennis 
Reminds me of Sunday nights, watching Londons’ Burning 
Always wondered why Dennis lorries are so rare; Walk through cabs would be great for urban deliveries.

Where’s the museum mate ?
That Maguires wagon was surprisingly lacking in the bling department; Was the driver on an extra 50p per hour?

Wonderful pic of the Scammel -the starting handle looks menacing–anyone remember hand starting an old Gardner–it needed a crew of three i remember

rear view
That Scammell rear view is a very good indication of how the 5th wheel got its name, and that was back in the days when trailer’s were rarely uncoupled and were just a means of carrying extra payload. It was a few years before operator’s realised the versatility of swapping trailer’s around to minimise downtime, and again the Scammell automatic coupling came to the forefront for a rapid turnaround of the vehicle. The company were one of the main inovator’s of the modern transport world, and alas were sold down the river like so many others.
