Those are Simon colours from back in the day ;)

I think you are right with Simon.
One thing that I like about this forum is that if you make a mistake, you are quickly corrected.
Thanks guys

They were used as Double road trains... I guess the vibration on the dirt roads may have been the reason

Weren't taking too many chances of them falling on the roof! That's certainly some serious gussetting there, something like I'd do.

Oops'
Checked original posting and it says that it looks like a Simon truck, but it is Glover Transport 1974 8v71T Kenworth.
Guess I shouldn't drink and type.
