The last time I sat behind the wheel (which, if you remember, was all bent and distorted!) of Billy’s Transcon was at the old Tivoli routier on the N154 (?), now bypassed; sipping tea and chatting to Billy as we returned from Morocco (ie his truck was parked next to mine). Happy days. Robert

Very nice pictures, thanks. Did you see some Sonacome bonneted lorries which look like this one tanker with Deutz engines ?
I think you need a visa to visit the country ?

One of the last Sonacome model a K 66.

Those small trucks have a Stradair cab, with a different roof and windscreen.

Welcome to the forum, Raji. Vehicles from exotic places are always of interest on here, and people who live in those places are especially valuable. :smiley: Is that factory which used to make lorries with the Berliet KB2400 cab still working? I mean the ones like that at the top of this page:

Edit- I have had a look around the internet, and the vehicles I mean are called SNVI. I assume they are Sonacome, as the badge is the same as the ones Michel posted above.

This is start work time on Sali when it was safe to park there.

Her is the veg being taken to the greengrocer Morocan style.

I used to buy veg for cooking from those! Especially if I was parked up outside Fit Fashion (behind the aerodrome between Bouknadel and Sale) and had time to kill. Robert

PS I wonder if that’s the back of my trailer in the picture above the horse and cart!

cliff I see the driver is waiting for the tyre company to arrive . like the springs on the trailer must have been pre monoleaf

Independent suspension though Boys! Modern stuff.

I’m sure that rear suspension won’t hold the air with the rubber missing

A very strange looking beast.

Can’t remember the name of the cheery Spanish driver who piloted this one… Robert
