Harry His name was Jack Kelly and I was lucky enough to be taken round Europe several times as a truck mad 20yr old. Original old school and a great character

He was well thought of & knew the job inside out. He used to come to Hangartners in Aarau for his return load & was treated like royalty- good bloke.

Yeah i told Clive about that 1 hes now got it on his wall apparently.Steve Armitages old waggon i drove it a few times and it was a good motor and it did some work ,he was averaging a trip to Italy a week with it or near enough
hi all, can remember the company leggets i used to see a lot of them down on the basle border back in the seventies (switzerland)i was on for jim squibb in thoses days and i also remember beresfords to had quite a good fleet had some erf for a while then moved over to scanias, al the best lads. 
On that Kenworth the steering wheel was too big for the cab & if you were not careful you would scrape yer knuckles on the bodywork. With Whites they reduced the size of the wheel to about size of a dinner plate. These cabs were designed by redundant aero engineers ,thats why it was all pop rivets & ali. They used to design a cab from the way it looked from the outside & just chuck all the furniture inside & hope for the best.Crap suspension. They had good beds ,tho’.
The only reason Freds had KW’s was because the son did his mechanic’s apprenticeship in the States, convinced his old man that KW’s were the bees knees. The big beds came in handy when Iran collapsed as the fleet was parked up all over the place due to lack of work.
