MilitantGraham Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 86 ET 73 used to belong to Rob Willson. For a couple of years, about 4 or 5 years ago, it was parked about 200 yards from where mine was where I was working at the time, on the same industrial estate near Pontypool. This is what it looked like back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antarmike Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) I like the way you just let the mine blow the fuel tank off! At least you have an extinguisher handy to put out the ensuing blaze!

Swill1952xs Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 found this slide today Mark :cool: This one was owned By East Sussex CC, and the last I saw of it was at Laughton in East Sussex, showing off with Gritineye's Scammell, then painted in Nato matt green. I don't know the chaps name or whether he is on this forum, but he also owned a Bedford 'S' type recovery vehicle. I haven't seen it or the owner for about six years now. Bernard will no doubt know the him. I used to refer to him a Yasser Arafat as he used to wrap a chequered tea towel found his head in the summer, and was the spitting image of him. :-D He used to keep them in a yard at Halland in E/SX and my wife used to work with his wife, (Heather) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

16svt Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 This was my old girl the day i sold her, I really really wish i had not had to sell her. I was very hard up at the time and there was no other option. it was the most useful vehicle I have ever owned. If i ever find another for good one for not too much money, i will buy it in a flash.
