Just bought this photo off NA3T off the net , was hoping that the reg number was taken down wrong and it was a a 2500 not a 2100 , my old Daf was G153NRA Daf drawbar on the Habitat contract , this was G163NRA , it was not on our contract but may have been on another contract for a diffrent depot . It was pot luck and failed but hey it did make me think .
So you buy a photo, but they leave the na3t watermarks on them?

I wonder what the ex Entress motors performed like,they would have had some collar.
Those DAF 8-leggers look well.
Dad drove out S. Irlande for some time and had this beast it could catch pigeons once she got going , sorry about the Hino in the pic but all pics were scan in, in 2s

Unfortunatly as I am overseas in Iraq i dont have my pictures with me from the 80’s when i worked for a dutch co. but here are some pages from my book that i found hidden in a old email. pity this is all i have at this time. my book is all abought truckers working in War zones. getting shot up and driving on crazy mountain tracks avoiding maniacs with guns etc. There is a paperback book that was based on one of our teams its called Wheels of Fire, by Terrance Strong. Its listed as Fiction but i can tell you that evry thing in the book really did happen, just the names & places have been changed. My book will be a series of Volumes. I finished Vol 1, 365 pages. I have enough stuff to do another 4 vol. have been all over the world in most wars. still in Iraq but did have a year off to go to Haiti after the earthquake. (unable to upload)

These are the dafs we used in Bosnia, extra heavy duty, they would go anywhere. Have some better pics but will have to wait until home next, but did find these in old emails. The two drivers were hit by shrapnel, One smoking is Jerry Swallow from Pool in Dorset. Last i heard he was on Containers.
