| Comments | Excellent site, olthough your way of registering motor vehicles is a bit confusing. In New Zealand may years ago number plates were changed each year with a new number being issued. We then decided to have to following: Each vehicle would be issued with w permanent plates starting with AA 1 working its way towards AA9999, the numbering would change to AB1 and so forth. All thoughs numbers have beed used so we now have AAA1 to AAA999 etc. But an excellent site. |

They are steel Hex nuts with a conical end to locate the wheel hole centrally round the stud. The thread is left handed, 3/4 dia, 16 tpi. The size of the Hex is not material. I think this is a UNF thread spec. Can any one help me with a source, new or second hand. The nearest I have got is a firm who would make them for me but they would cost as much as the trailer is worth. Any suggestions gratefully received. Michael Brown Tel 07795 418282 |

I have many photo on disc of his lorries. He had 3 bedfords, all restored to a high standard. I also have many oicture of an Eastbourne Haulage company F AVanns. If you or your members would like a copy of these photo's I would be happy to supply. This lorry KRO 617G will be at teh Festival of Transport near Eastbourne this year with my dads other lorries. Please address any E-mails to me with the subject Ken's lorries. Regards Wendy |

"Some van building continuing at Luton until transferring to the new Halewood premises".Having been employed at both Ford Halewood & Vauxhall Ellesmere Port, I think you will find it is the latter were vans where built. |

| Comments | I drove (and later owned ) Bedford vehicles from 1968 to 1992 and found them to be economical, reliable and easy to maintain. Not the most luxurious or comfortable of vehicles, they were "horses for courses". How I wish that I had bought one in good condition and "mothballed "it !!!!!!! It would now be a very desirable exhibition vehicle. |

| Comments | Hi, can anybody help? Researching family history. My grandfather William H Blackburn was a motor sales man in 1923. I assume for Vauxhall/Bedford trucks and cars, as he went on to open Backburn and Price motor engineers and vehicle distributors with Mr Price in Berwick Upon Tweed around 1948. They were the main dealers for Vauxhall cars, Bedford and Scammel Trucks in North Northumberland and Berwickshire. |

| Comments | Nice site, good photos too. Re Police vehicle photos; The police motorcycle listed as "Triumph Commando" is surely a Norton, is it not? And, the Scottish Traffic solo (unidentified in your caption) is a Honda ST1100 "Pan European," popular with many police forces present day. |

| Comments | My dad Alf O' Grady was a Rudds driver and stayed with Pickfords when they took over Rudds. They were based in Stratford it was known as the Farm. He carried lots of diffrent things that I can remember The flying Scotsman train twice, the mallard, gypsy moth ,the eagle above the american embassy to name but a few I went out with him quite a few times. I was and am very proud of him. I still have a few pics of the lorrys. He died when I was 15 I am now 45 and have a lot of happy memories. |
