6 X 6

Hello Tom , would you mind opening the thread up to all Millies as I am sure there are a lot of Mk3 pictures out there dying to come in ! :-D

Andy, I'm just happy looking at any lorry 'photos ! I would say that as the MK 1 and MK 3 share only a name other posters may feel the MK 3 deserves it's own thread. I won't be opening any other marque threads so I wait to see what happens and go along with that. Regards.

Hi 6X6, Before I saw the larger Constructor pic you posted I thought your avatar pic was of a chap in the back looking through a big pair of binoculars, which goes with what you say at the bottom, the I hope this was intentional as it's great!

I see what you mean but no, I'm not that clever !

As many of you will know, this is driver Stan Wass in 1955 with one of the M.o.S. Constructors. I think he was only 25 at the time this photograph was taken. Sadly, we have recently learnt that Stan passed away on 2nd November 2008.

This picture was on the front cover of one of the oil field vehicle brochures.

No, I haven't had the pleasure of visiting Broxbourne yet...... I was at Wapping

two weeks ago. It was like a ghost town. In a way, I used to quite like going to Wapping, driving across London in the rush hour on the way in and then driving in the early hours (illegally, due to weight and length) across London on the way out, usually on the way to SW England or S. Wales. The best thing about Wapping was the canteen. Having the stomach ache and feeling sick all the way back was an excellent way of keeping awake on the motorway.

Are these the Australian Explorers mentioned earlier on this thread ?

Don't knock the Sun ! A a self employed driver attached to TNT I made good money hauling Sun, Times and NOW out of Wapping. What better way to spend Saturday night than pulling out of the N.I. plant at 23:30 with a fully laden artic and someone else paying for the diesel ?

Actually, quite a few things might have been better now I think about it, oh well.

Ladies or Gents ?

I've heard that as well, although you can hardly believe it. Personally, I love seeing the street scenes in these films just to see what was around at the time. Post war films are just as interesting with so much demobbed stuff on the roads in 1950's, often with wondrous home made bodies.
