hi all,
this foden is owned by cross hands based kbhs bulk transport and has recenty undergone major chassis/rear axle surgery,she now has the man hub reduction double drive setup.the super single shod front axle has been raised with 5 inch steel blocks and owner andrew thomas cannot wait until he couples her up to the tractor pulling sled at this years carmarthen truckshow.
kbhs love manās,the fleet is vitually all man artics and eight wheelers.
though a couple of other makes have squeezed in.

regards graham.

This is a mate of mine known as Dai Coity moving my office in Pant Quarry in bridgend
this aec mandator v8 may well be in spiers of melksham livery,but the ax registration indicates that she started her life with someone in south wales.ely transport,alcan or monarch transport llandow?,i donāt know who had it new,my guess would be alcanās? at cross keys. that short reg. rings a bell:? 
this fiat 684t was owned from new by evans transport in my home town of porthcawl.i remember my father repairing this truck after it had a very nasty accident in london,when itās driver jumped the traffic lights near putney bridge and a routemaster bus destroyed the cab.i did many miles in this truck as a kid,though not many with evans transport,it was later owned by evansā business neighbour j&m transport on stormy down,i recall the j&m fitters cursing those trilex type wheels.they also disliked working on the engine as the cab didnāt tilt.although it was a gutless, rough riding, noisy piece of italian crap,i donāt think it was unreliable? āthe maccaroni kidā
your bang on about the trilex wheels M8 a nightmare,sadly i dont remember Evans of porthcawl.
