So many pictures of those 3MW & 5MW-cabbed ERFs show a seemingly slumped back cab when parked up. They didn’t have independent cab air suspension so it can’t be to do with sagging air support. I can only suppose that whatever supported those Motor Panels 5MW cabs at the rear became worn over time. The 7MW tilting version of that cab never appears to have suffered similarly. Who knows then? 
I share your experience Rob. I went from occasional use of a Ford D-series V8 on the same company, to a Transcon. 'Nother planet! I passed my test on a D-series but I have to say I loved the Transcons, especially the one I drove with a Cummins 350 in it 
is that taken at whiteheads bradford.
The Jerseys now never seem right.They don’t taste the same and the peel isn’t the same it has to be cut off like other types.Jersey potato peel was very soft and could just be rubbed off the potato no need to cut it.
Found Cornish potatoes are better than Jerseys now but they seem to have stopped sending them far outside Cornwall.
shame it looks too good to parked up like that. probably waiting to go to scrap man.
Those early F10’s has the silly dash board mounted splitter switch.
Not here, early F88/89s did but later models and all F10/12 were gearlever fitted.
Is that guy off on a Trunk.?
I’d have thought he’d be pulling a Jumbo Trailer though.
Thank ya very much.
Is that you, in the cap RR?
I don’t think they were here, either. All the early F10s I drove had gearlever switches. However, the early F88 I drove I had that dash-mounted toggle for the splitter and I agree with CF that they were silly.
Ditto, a 2817 V8.540 I think, probably ex-Dagenham. The two-speed axle was bu66ered (thankfully stuck in High).
2417, that is.
The Paddys loved them IIRC, but a rare sight in the land of UK.
Part of it is probably that the rear axle is in a drainage swale.
the early F7s had the spliter on the dash aswell.
@buzzer that top one, with the 44 gallon drums,is an International R190, a legend in its day. Note the use of a 44 slung from the chassis rail, as a long range tank. There’s probably another one on the other side.
