Quite a while since I posted any brochures, so here’s something for you.
Here’s a few front covers from various American trucks. Hope they’re of interest.
I have the interior pages if requested.

I have really enjoyed reading this thread, and I have some brochures in English that i would like to share with you. I´ll make them smaller next time, they became too big now I think

How do reverse this ■■?
My English are not so good that I can explain it in a correct way, but I try anyway.
You have to turn the steering wheel the other way compared to a semitrailer since you have two places where it turns, and a semitrailer only have one.
Maybe this picture can help…

How do reverse this ■■?
It would be the same as any A frame drawbar , same lock as reversing a rigid then small movements of the steering wheel-this one would be easier than many because of the length of the trailer & it having double axles
Thank you mazz, you explained it in a much simpler way…
Here´s another 24 meter for bulk transports. Is the correct term for this vehicle an “A-frame drawbar”? I´m still learning your language, so it´s more fun the more I learn

This brochure from 1952 is the oldest one I have… and it´s four years older than I am

Couple more here, but this time from the earlier version of the Transcon.
Them seats look like they are out of a ford capri or cortina!..Excellent thread though. I have some ford cargo brochures that came in a big round tin (like an old film reel would be kept in) and also some leyland boxer ones. I’ll dig em out and put them up.

Another one of my English brochures
