Hi chaps

Does anyone have any pics of this fleet especially the Albion Reivers they used on interstate? I would be grateful for anything as, if they had LAD-cabbed trucks, I'd consider finishing mine as one even though as a 1973-build she might not be spot-on.

Was reading Tony Petch's article in Issue 10 of VTCM and saw mention of the Reivers. I've put my request in this section in the hopes we might get some history of the company as well or hear from some ex-drivers etc with good stories.

Looking forward to any replies. Many thanks.

I am stuck in the NSW lockdown going through the old posts. Great way to spend the next 2 weeks.

That's an interesting point about the MT Kiera lookout. It's a favourite spot for my wife and I to visit and enjoy the fantastic views over Wollongong and up and down the coast.

Thats a pretty smart looking Ergo cab Leyland, I always felt the later model Leyland stuff was very underrated, yes I know there was quality issues but just about ever manufacturer had that issue including the Australian made gear

The name Willenhall comes to mind for the ERF cab. Also used by GUY and one or two others.

Yep, the Willenhall cab (usually seen on series 7 Austin/BMC) was used by ERF for a while before going to the later style of Motor Panels cab.

I know a lot of young couples used to go there at night. Don’t know why, because you wouldn’t be able to see anything at night, especially when the windows were all misted up.
