Love the Peterbilts, but I'm interested in the number plate on the Thames Trader in the last post. Bit hard to read, but it looks like 'S 446' on an NT plate. If that is correct, just wondering what type of plate it is. If I'm wrong, then what is it?

This is probably a DUMB question :'( or 2

But how many of these early Peterbilts came into the country??

How many are known to have survived??
