I nabbed this pic of a couple of Constructors taken in Antrim 1977 from the 7 SQN group that im in on Facebook.

Wonder where they ended up?

Does anyone know of this one?! No reason... :whistle:

 

 

I recognised the "TBEA" on the door of the Merc as being Aultbea..this is where my dad grew up in the 1950's. The truck must belong to Alex Forbes and sons...though you probably already know this!

Well worth a punt by the looks of it..

Its purely for asthetics so as to keep the neck tight under your shirt collar and it also kept the RSM from putting you behind the guard!! All squaddies made the mod and i had a piece of green army string in mine!!

B/S baffles brains!!

Cheers..think ill do just that! Id be interested to know who and what goes on down here in the south west. I used to know Bob White who has a good collection of military vehicles and his pride and joy is his fully restored Scammell Explorer..is he known on here? I lost touch with him few years ago.

I have many tales to tell about my time in the mob but ill save them for when i get my first round in!!

Ill have a hunt for some interesting pics..i know i have plenty of me and my DROPS out in Bosnia..

Im always happy to chat about trucks and things and if anyone gets stuck maybe i can help.

Unfortunately i dont own a vehicle as i dont have the space but would like to sometime in the future..cant decide what though!! Bedford TM 14 tonne's are my favourite!!

Hi all..names Andy and ive had a life long interest in all types of military vehicles though the heavy stuff is where my heart lies. I spent 10 years in the RCT/RLC driving Fodens, Bedfords and Scammell crusaders to name but a few. Ive been out for 11 years now but have always worked in the haulage industry..fuel for last 10.

I live in Plymouth and work in Southampton so would be good to meet up with fellow enthusiasts as i wish to get involved again with the driving and restoration side of things.

Look forward to meeting you all.

Andy
