As Promised B Series and C Series on an X plate with consecutive numbers…
VUT 491X & VUT 492X
It would be nice to know where these are now but more than likely there are spares…
Hi everyone,
Has anyone got any info or history of my old wagons, ERF “B” series fitted with a 180 Gardner and 6spd DB box. ORM 126R she was origonly painted green with a yellow stripe prior to me painting her by hand! had a high sided alloy bulk body that had been previously fitted with a feed blower. I replaced the alloy body for a steel Charlon, and replaced the DB gearbox with a 9 speed fuller because she was unable to pull herself out of the sand pits in dorset. The DB box made her long in the leg, ideal for mororways but no good gor tips, quarries and site work! Do you like the vertical exhaust? that was fabricated using a 120 Gardner straight through silencer and a couple of lenghts of stainless heating flew pipe!
And later one that i purchased new from K.L. Commercials in Southampton. D385CTP a “E” Series with a 290 L10 ■■■■■■■ and twinsplitter box. i havnt a clue where she went after 1991. can anyone help me. I have saved some photos of them but would love to see any more of these registrations or any of my other trucks i operated between 1983 and 1991.
Thanks Ian Root (stingray)

Hi Big Al
GVF ran at a downplated 28t for about 7 years delivering new Skodas from King’s Lynn. it was sold to a showman and I did spot it at a travelling fair in Baldock many years ago but haven’t seen it since.
I also overtook it once on the M25, running at 100ft and managing about 30 mph.
Does anyone have any pictures of ERF E series that worked for tate and lyle? I am restoring one that was new to them and then was sold to tyson h burridge in ■■■■■■■■ The reg is G177 TTM. Any info or pics would be grate.
