Hi Graham The Scania was supplied by Telford Trucks Cardiff new to a owner driver. I dont know his name. Derek Brick Knighton had it for a few years. DAad bought it in 1994 and ran it until he retired. Thanks Merfyn
There used to be quite a few firms in this area running GMC lime spreaders in the 1950’s and 60’s.The last one I remember was Sam Radford from Diddlebury near Craven Arms who was still running his in 1970.Could be the same one seen here.
