I see the truck has a Devon registeration . Probably supplied by Frank Tucker Commercials of Exeter who were ERF agents , they ran a lot of trucks their selves or maybe sold to Devon company like Gregory’s or Brian Harris ( Harris & miners ) maybe Norman from Torquay might know . Cheers Dennis

Pretty sure I had to wait for this to finish tipping at Sanquhar Tiles sometime last winter. If not this one, there’s another, very similar from the Lancashire area.
