HI,John ,it looks like a ex Airospace trailor, Yours Barry
It is indeed an ex-British Aerospace stepframe.
I remember these being used around Warton, Preston & Samlesbury - pulled by D-cabbed Bedford TMs. There’s another one sat in a farm yard across the double roundabout from the entrance to the Leyland Trucks plant at Farington.
Hiya…ten out a ten…the trailer come from filton to hawarden and is now with a pal of mine,
apart from the floor the trailer is like new.

may i ask did it have airsuspension on the tag? hej benkku
That looks like an A,B, C and E series old and new type (bumper). All worthy of restoration.
Lets hope these ERFs are not left to rot. (previous page)

Hiya…i see the A series ERF and the scania are about the same age!!! i think the ERF looks in quite good condition.
maybe some would still want to try driving the scania.

Some thing different and easier,the Scania may look good converted in to a(Half cab) like the old Fodens,after all it is half way there,might get some comments on this!!!.regards Vic.
The Scania was good in a lot of ways, 1) half a cab,saving on weight 2)only short drivers allowed to drive it 3)less weight means less fuel so very economic 4)it only needs a certain amount of tyres 5) no need for expensive air conditioning (ideal for the middle east run) 6) no chance the driver will carry any passengers 7) the driver never needs to clean the windows,paint work or interior.
That’s all for now but I hope there will be more comments.Paul
here is what it may look like after being converted, but would only have half a sleeper. This one prepeared by my grandaughter,
maybe easier to do on photo than in real life, thanks to whoever posted the yellow Scania off the Scania thread. Vic

I remember Richard Nuttalls motors working out of Trinity Paper Mills at Holcombe Ramsbottom in the 70s.He had a 6 wheeler Leyland ergo im sure my dad said it was a Retriever ,a 6 wheeler A series ERFs and some 8 wheeler B series ERFs .They were all flats and brought bailed waste in and then loaded rolls of paper out.1 of the 8 wheeler drivers was called Dave i`m sure he went to Cormar carpets … but i could be wrong
