From far away NZ and thanks to Rod Simmonds, what’s with the half buried tyre in the foreground, some sort of distance judgement, obviously it can be run over without damage, me i’m thinking its a bit clever whatever it’s for
. Maybe the yard dog buried it

Looks like that old car tyre that I swatted down a hole in the ground a few years ago, I just knew that it would reappear somewhere eventually!

HI, was Hudson coal, and oils the same company in Dagnam docks, this A.E.C 9/6
BELONGED TO HUDSON OILS. 239 JEV.
Evening all, suedehead, oily, apologies, the incident on Pats Eurotest was 79, not 77! age, and memory!
Oily, those pictures of the Barreiros assembly line pre date the 300Series. The Berliet Relax cab then fitted, had the front panel modified from twin outward opening “doors”, to a single panel secured by deutz fastners. The reason that Barreiros engineers were doubly sore at being “given” to RVI by Peugeot Citroen, was that Berliet (Renault), had pulled out of the Spanish truck market very suddenly, and actually left quite a lot of people in “the cart”! and suddenly those Frenchies were back owning a very good Spanish company !
Yes , those 300Series made a lovely sound, 12litre,turbocharged, 266hp, 750lb ft @1400rpm. But they did not always run reliably. Cheerio for now.
thanks to Samuel Williams thread for Pics

When I first saw this lorry outside a hotel here in Gothenburg I thought it was a sleeper on top of the cab, but why would they have so much windows in a sleeper… and wipers on front window? Could it be a passenger compartment up there?

The first 'photo here shows ‘past and present’, I drove the Renault recently, (part-timer) the Atki in the background was mine in the seventies for a while, (VAJ 247J) 180 Gardner, tramped all over in it, loved it, (but I was young and daft, still daft!!) The second photo is one of the many ‘in betweens’. Mizzo.
I’m interested in seeing the old girl in the background of that photo mizzo? the Atki.
