This is the last outfit I had when I was driving for Wincanton/Shellgas. The truck did mainly farm work, its only a 420, but did the job well enough, the barrell is a Lakeland.
Heres a few from Exel/tankfreight Shellgas, before the Wincanton days.
In a field again, nobody seemed to think about trucks when they put some of the tanks in, took some finding aswell sometimes.
The ex Morrissons ERF wasnt the best truck in the world to have all week out in, more oil and you know in the cab than on the 5th wheel.
A couple of older ones I found, these were taken at Greenwood Engineering in Grimsby. I dont know whos livery the blue one is, were conoco lorries blue in the days before the brown livery■■?
That AEC Mandator looks like Conoco to me Steptoe and were localish to Grimsby as they ran out of Killingholme,still do in fact.They were blue and white at one time and I think their vehicles had long fleet numbers like the one on the cab front.Pity we can’t see the reg. under that Grimsby tradeplate.

Agree with Chris Webb about the Conoco AEC although I wondered if it might have been an earlier Caledonian tankers rig, nice shade of blue though, wonder what drove them to the brown of later years, more rural perhaps ?
I thought it maybe a Conoco lorry, I only remember them in the brown livery. Its also like you say Sniffy, very similar to the Caledonian tankers that ran out of Immingham years ago. They where part of the Forth group.
