It has been covered on here before and the man with the knowledge aka Chris 240 Gardner, said it was the only Aussie cab shipped over to the UK and fitted to a Black Knight 8 wheeler and was on show as a cab chassis at the 1968 Earls Court show, it was then owned by R. Hanson and sons.

The MacAskill volvo is on the harbourside at Stornoway, the Russell wagons look a bit like the Bathgate Russell livery but I guess a different company. The Sadler’s Reiver well turned out lorry and load.

I have a scale model of a similar truck, registered GTM 809. So it looks the London Brick Company had bought a batch of them. Could any of you please tell me which exact model it is, Mk 2 or Mk 3, and its year of make? Thanks!
