This thread had slipped down too far ,…so heres some help for our "■■■■■■■■ Gill" , ( The Waverton One` ).

Rather murky weather prevented a better photograph of this Ford Cargo , on show at last weekend`s
Hethersgill Vintage Rally , Carlisle.

Cheers , cattle wagon man.

I did drive a Ford Cargo (the old shape) to Germany and back once. Cab was a bit basic, but it did the job. For me, the best Cargos would be those with the ■■■■■■■ L10 and 9-speed Fuller. There’s one pic on here of a 26-tonne tipper with that drive-line, but there’s little mention of the driveline of the artics shown. Any pics of these? Robert

Heres another for "■■■■■■■■ Gill" and his portfolio of transport` collection.

This must be amongst the most luxurious of all the Ford Cargoes ever built !!
A both sides-bursting motorhome , - completely rust-free too.

Photographed at Greenlands Farm Vintage Rally , Carnforth , last weekend.

Cheers , cattle wagon man.

On a wet Saturday in Preston , a couple of weeks back , this Ford Cargo was part of the Travelling Fairground fleet. Maybe its more than 26 years old , but it still does the intended job.

cheers , cattle wagon man.

hi all,
one more picture to the collection

Remember fitting flitch plates to the chassis on this to stop it flexing, think they had 2 of them 2417s

[euromat]

seen in sete, looking sorry for itself…

[robert1952]

Some of you Stobie fans out there must know: were most of the Cargos like this one fitted with ■■■■■■■ L10:290 engines and 9-speed Fuller 'boxes? Robert

[robert1952]

Question 2: someone who worked in the great Fordwerken fraternity must know:

a) what country that registration number belongs to

b) what engine / gearbox combination the LHD Cargo pictured below would have had

I used to deliver / collect from Ford factories all over Europe, but I don’t know everything!

Robert

[newmercman]

L10-290 and a Twin Splitter is my guess, we had three as shunters at Solstor and that’s how they were set up.
