Does anyone by chance have any pics of the P93 4x2 rigid they had?
If i remember it was Ponsonby colours on the cab and VAX coloured body,looked really smart.
I did the first service on it at Keltruck and the list of jobs it came in with was as long as your bloody arm!!!,took me a full weekend to do it all.
Used to work with a couple of ex Ponsonby drivers at Fullers Logistics,now there at Maritime at Hams Hall.
Ponsonbys got me into a load of trouble with Keltruck( long story but eneded with me leaving with no blemish on my record but must leave immediately lol!!,still it all worked out for me in the end!

I havent got a photo of the Scania but I remember many a Sat mornings being in the back of that Scania loading it when he worked in the warehouse, im sure MIKE P will know who I am. It’d be nice to see a puic of it, also if anyone has a photo of the FL10 L7 DJP that’d be appreciated. It was the only one out the lot of them that had red writing on the air deflector.

Sorry i didnt explain myself very well, I used to go to work with my dad on a Saturday when he worked for Pondo’s, I spent most saturday mornings on the back of that scania loading it at about the age of 10 or 11. It was ok though, I used to get a sos and egg sandwich off des or Paul.
