There you go Evvo, Ex Shell chinese six 
I stand to be corrected 
but a mate of mine bought this from a dealer in Cambridgeshire who in turn got it from V.J Harper Haulage who swapped the Shell day cab for a sleeper, Dont know where it is now as he sold it sometime last year 
fantastic pics all, keep them coming! think i may have a few knocking about ill have a look
I seem to remember that the F7 cab was touted as the Club of Four or something, as it was also used by Saviem, Renault and …? Sorry, I forget who the other one was!
RD - You’re nearly right 
the ‘Club of Four’ was Daf , Volvo, Magirus Deutz, and Saviem , From around 1975 ish
Cheer’s lemonmouth I used to see tem running around quite a bit even still inot the early 90’s I think.
that cab even made it to the states thanks to saviem-renault-mack tie ups, you still see the odd one round the NY-NJ area, along with scania 82s mainly 4 wheeler landscapers/builders wagons etc
drove this for a while before i went onto artics, one of the first proper trucks ive ever driven, always jumped out of 5th while going around corners though, this thing pulled about 17tonne of sugar around every day for god knows how many years, still going now as well.

that looks like a right ‘meaty’ f7!
it was a flatbed until about 2 years ago when they spent god knows how much putting a new body on it
my employer seems to go to great lengths not to replace his trucks
although i think that one should be kept, hes got 20 year old mercs still working very hard and showing the signs of it
funnily enough he upgrades his fancy mercedes car every year…

What a great example of “The MIGHTY F7”…
any chance of a pic or 2 of the cab interior? Please
Nice thing about Oz trucks: they never go rusty!
here’s a few more “gorgeous” F7’s…
wonder if this one went as far as the desert?
It wouldnt be proper without a supermarket example…
fancy a shift on this one MIKE T and AXORMAN?
or a nice “meaty” 6 wheeler
or a “top of the range” Dane 
Was this the “poor mans” version of a Globetrotter?

funnily enough i think i do have a pic of the interior but ill have to dig it out for you, have to shoot off to work now 
i wouldnt imagine itd be much different than your average f7 though?
i was told the roof was re-upholstered over the last couple years anyway
Sorry about the quality its absolutely shocking will 
will try to get a decent pic when I go up there in the day.
This F7 or F6 was taken at Cauldon Lowe tarmac Quarry last Sunday Dont know waht its used for.
Will get my old fella to dig out some photos of his brand new F7 KBF 798V six wheel tipper. First truck I ever went in so have a soft spot for the little Volvo!
what was you trying to do pinch it ?
Don’t be daft Truckerash, how can you do supermarket work with that? Where’s the bed? I’ll get the boss to buy this one with a sleeper. This was in Dawsonfreight’s yard but I don’t remember ever seeing one in their colours, I suppose someone will have a photo now.
Hi all, here is a really nice pair!
but they are a nice pair though.Paul
p.s i will search for some interior pics ash.

Not wishing to be picky you understand,but,that “Dane” looks decidedly “Dutch” to me.
Schrama used to run some nice tidy outfits too,though I 'm not sure if they’re still around.

Ash,if this is all you can think to do when you get home for 10 mins,you should get out more and socialise
