That cab looks like Lucozade built it themselves. 
Wouldnât do on a hot sunny day though.

Thatâs an ACCO, 3070?
Another view: flickr.com/photos/63884069@N04/6769164713/
Or is it a 2670?
Wrong grill for a 2670, I reckon itâs a 3070B.

That Leyland motor, 680 engine and matching steering wheel. 
Youâd need to be a big lad to swing that about.

The same company built this little beauty so itâs not as if they werenât capable of producing a nice design. The truck reg no dates from 1953 so it was a pretty futuristic design for itâs day though.

Looks like an AEC to me,might be wrong,but there is a triangle badge halfway down the rad grille.

Anyone can see itâs a Lucozade - it says so on the grille.
Was that Lucozade truck in an early lorry driver of the year competition, it has numbers /letters in the windscreen and is backing into a roped bay, Buzzer

If it is itâs an immediate fail, heâs looking backwards through the door window instead of using those generously proportioned mirrors.

So what is the triangular AEC looking badge below the Lucozade badge?
Thanks for the confirmation âOilyâ!

Speaking of AEC, a Mammoth with a pneumocyclic gearbox via John Murphyâs channel:
youtube.com/watch?v=WrdYj-3DXNc
I was aware of buses (Atlanteans, Leopards) with this but hadnât heard of one fitted to a lorry - presumably it wasnât successful in wagons.
This mightâve been posted here before, but a short YT video of AECs in Australia: youtube.com/watch?v=eRQPbF1Mj_8
I daresay SDU, spardo, DIG, MM & Co. will know more than I do.
AEC introduced the Leyland Pneumo-Cyclic gearbox into their Mandators in 1969 as an option along with the 10 speed constant mesh splitter box (simply a 5 speed box with the 6th overdrive replaced by an air operated split on each main gear). The semi-auto box also had ten ratios with a splitter on each main ratio and was the same box as fitted to the Leyland Two Pedal Beaver. These boxes gave the same top speed as the normal 6 speed boxes but enabled more flexibility on climbs etc. These boxes were also used on the V8 Mandators but because of problems the semi-auto box was discontinued and withdrawn in 1971. AEC also produced their own 10 speed range change box and this was offered in replacement of the auto box in Mandators, not that many had been sold with that box originally. Again though by 1974 the AEC range change box was replaced by a bought in Fuller Roadranger range change box which was more cost effective. As for the Mammoth Major Eight I donât believe the semi-auto box came as an option, as in 1971 two boxes were introduced both being 10 speed constant mesh splitter and range change gearboxes. Possibly the auto box in the video was one from a Mandator and not the original driveline. The semi-auto boxes werenât as much a success in lorries as in buses (being the same box), the demands in road haulage being much more excessive, quite often the gearbox fluid temperatures would become extremely hot and damage would occur. Franky.

Bunny Hill Motors had a fleet of 6 of those Beavers, they were nice to drive but did give a lot of trouble, often breaking down.
What a lovely sound that Major was making. Brings back good memories.
