Tony has deffinately retired the truck due to the difficulty in running it against the RTA along with the current climate :(

It was at Aboods yard last time I was there about 3 months ago. It is magic 8-)

Some play hard to get

Tony's truck is the one i refered to.
When Aboods property is finally sold perhaps the Foden will need a new home.

Yeah cementepede, I have a mate who has been trying to do a deal and he has been told that it is deffinately NOT For Sale and to please stop asking :(. I am pretty sure he will have first dibs on it when the time comes, he has been a friend of their's for years. Just has to wait for the dust to settle and the reality of not running it full time to set in then, who knows ::)

Hope he gets it!

Hello cementepede, I spoke to Tony Saba at Brian Abood's funeral on 20-11-10 and he has no idea what he intends to do with his truck. He clearly does not want to be hassled about it. He moved it from the Abood's yard at Northmead only a week or so before, no idea where to. The truck is in pretty good condition, having a full workover a few years ago including a brand new R-R engine, all suspension done, repaint etc. It is one of Cedric's creations and is a great old truck - like my old Thornycroft!

Just going through some older posts and thought an update was needed here.
Following Tony Saba's passing a while back, his truck has been acquired by a collector and it awaits a tidy up. A period trailer has been completed in Abood's colours (see photo)

and the combination will look spectacular when the truck is done up.
