Curnock, where did you get the photo of the Canley Car Deliveries truck from , do you have any more, I remember that truck well as a Kid they used to run the same docks as my Dad, interesting thing about that one is to unload the top of the trailer, you had to drive them onto the truck and then down on the lift, I also have alot of Car Transporter photos that I’ve driven.

We havent progressed much from the 9 car carriers that Canley Car Deliveries used

Are the multi deck technological hydraulic monsters able to get many more on?

Oh yes 11 car carriers 40 years later

Wheel Nut, that’s very true, but a normal artic from that period would only carry five, but the waggon and drag was as you know a two man job back then.

Yes I know. I was just winding it up a bit, although with all the additions in elf and safety a 32500kg artic in 1975 could carry 21 ton where some 40 tonners will still struggle to do 25 ton
