My old boss bought a couple of brand new Spanish Dodge 8 wheel tippers in 1980, apparently they gave good service and were well liked.

Here are a couple of photos of my friend Niall's ERF EC14, which he takes to truck shows and in turn uses to transport his tractors to tractor shows:


Got to love the EC range. Apart from the Foden Alpha, they are my favourite late-era British trucks. I'm hoping to have a drive in it one day

I spotted this Ex City of Plymouth Leyland Atlantean at rest on an industrial estate within the City today, I almost certainly would have been transported in this back in the 1970’s…

That’s the way I feel Brother.

And it’s not an Iveco..

Ideal for re-creating the late, great Terry Hall and The Specials 'Ghost Town' video round your town centre.

Has a long enough driving period to highlight another coolant leak.
Same area as last time, from the plastic bung-sealed one. The 2p fix is still bone dry, and I only changed one to see if cleaning the bung and seal up was an effective fix. That clearly wasn't the case!

Luckily, I was already prepared for this and had a second 2p piece filed down and in the car in case the plastic bung ever leaked.

Two seconds to swap out and minimal coolant loss this time, I've dried up the area and will monitor it over the next couple of days.

About 20 years ago, my youngest Son is now a bit of a unit, the car and blanket are still in my possession👍
