Hiya,
If this ERF has a biggish ■■■■■■■ (and I very much doubt it) and
double drive of course, what a magnificent drawbar outfit it
could become I’d certainly drive it for work if it’s only got a 180
Percy inboard leave it solo and local. And if less than a 180 give
it the gas spanner, I’ve been stuck behind the things too many
times with the smaller Percy’s in them to have any love for them.
thanks harry, long retired.

Hi all
What is the tie up with Raymond & Nolan then

I worked for Henry Jenkins from Beddau from 72, they bought one of Brian Davies f86 reg no mbx 18h which I drove for about 18 months , it came to us in good condition and on the hills was the best in the fleet.
