@Robroy the bitchmeister, your 401 certainly looks the business and would rate 10/10 in my book apart from one thing that really knocks it down to 5/10 ? You’ve got your cab flags facing the wrong way! What where you thinking? we all know that cab flags have to be facing outwards
Regards
Dave Penn;Are they not?
Maybe just faded and looks as if wrong way.We all know flags and pennants were compulsory by law in the 80s,
…but this was early 90s and I was trying to wean myself off them. Just look at one of my previous motors, an ERF and you will see what I mean.

I remember them well, but somehow this artic looks so much starker with the gap behind accentuating the thin, tall day cab! Robert

Now I’ve seen those pics, they are quite different to the other one after all.
3 incarnations of the same vehicle. it was running out of here until middle of last year. sleeper was a modified version of what they usually put on box bodied rigids, had to be slightly skimmed off at the bottom to bring the height down.

How to modify a Mk3 AEC Mammoth Major cab into a first class bedroom for Two.
Equipment.
Ex army greatcoats (2)
Blankets - (2)
Pillows (2)
Newspaper (As much as left over after toilet duties)
Suitcases (2) to level out the bonnet as much as possible.
Toolbox (to fill the footwell )
Old quilt (to make the bonnet softer)
6 pints of local brew (according to area parked up in and as sleep enducement)
Fish and chip wrappers ( kept to fill the gaps and smell a little bit better)
Empty bottle ( for winter time - stops grumbles when the door opens and lets the cold air in.) Never pee outside when it’s raining.
Tactics
Always kip down with feet at opposite sides of the cab.
Never ■■■■
Sleep on your side to prevent snoring.
Never de-ice the inside of the windows till the driver is fully awake or starts the engine cos we are freezing.
As you proceed up the A1 (optional) at snails pace wave happily to all those jammy gits in modern wagons.

You should post that on the driver shortages thread to add a touch of context! Robert
