Hi Dean, IIRC The late Jimmy Ruff AKA Ruffy drove this Crusader from new, Adams ran several of these all powered with a Rolls Royce 290 engine, They performed very well as I was told by the lads that drove them running down to South Wales on a regular basis, Also hauling steel out of Scunthorpe, Thanks for posting this, Regards Larry.
