ERF A, B & C series

[kevmac47]

I clocked this very smart motor at Immingham last week.

Hi Kevmac47

That ECX does look smart and still looks “fashionable”. The ECX is the one ERF model I never drove. Was it the best of the ERF’s or did it fall short. ?
This is when it was an ERF and not a ERF/MAN. What’s your opinion?

Cheers Bassman

Yes it’s one of their old ones – Very distinctive aren’t they!

It was a ■■■■ sight smarter than that when Bernard Corbett ran it! I seem to remember that it pulled a drag as well, didn’t it?

Chinese 6 C series

Was that Chinese six a “factory” built chassis or would it have been a 4x2 chassis converted after it left ERF’s ? Cheers Bewick.

There were a few around this area Dennis, mostly on the hay and straw job, Foden’s as well. I guess it was to avoid overloading the front axle?

Thanks for that Pete,but I bet they were a barrel of laughs in the fields when they were loading at times,they wouldn’t be able to move so far without a tractor yoked to the fron’t hitch ! Cheers Dennis.

They were OK for weight with a load of straw, but you needed that second steer if you had a full load of hay on board.
