Horse Power ?

Hi all,
Its a miserable Autumn Sunday here so I have been surfing !..... (The Net of course)

I like to find press info older than me and this is my latest find, from February 1936.



and heres a close up of the stylish coachbuilding..



also showing the lack of load restraints !!
No H&S then ?

I am now looking for ancient press relating to my favourite manufacturer.

Cheers
RS

There is a good series of Salvage Squad on Utube from the UK that rebuilds one of those . ...

I think this is the real horse power


Cheers Dave.

Clearly not Percherons, but are they Clydesdales?

Could be Clydesdales, white blaze on the nose, some white socks, but this side one needs a feed.

Yeah, you're right. I think they took over in 2000.

i lived in Cronulla from around 1970 till about 82 ... i cant remember that horse & cart going around ! (obviously before my time ) but someone on here may remember a towing company that had old leylands austins albions etc .. they were situation on the corner of gannons road and Denman ave caringbah ...last time i went past maybe 10 years ago the trucks were still in the yard but rusting to pieces ..a shame really
