Tipper & Mixer Pics

Hi all,

I have recently joined the forum and have an interest in tippers & mixers (or agi trucks, as you call em).
I was wondering if any members have any pictures or memories of the pink Readymix fleet /Fawley & Lewers from the 1970s,80s + 90s that they would like to share.

Also, any tippers working on hotmix, asphalt or sand & gravel work.

I'm particularly interested in any Volvo F86, Volvo G88, Scania, Leader, Atkinson 3800 or any British gear, especially ERFs.

Thanks very much.

Mark

Hi Swishy,

Thanks for the welcome and the pics mate.

Bit harsh on the old Volvo mate, as a pom, we love em.

If it wasn't for them and the good folks of Scania & DAF we would still be sitting in rotting, ash frame cabs, with no heaters and an old Gardner 180 slowly grinding away at 35mph.

Mind you, that said, last time I was back there, things weren't moving much faster anyway!

What else have you got for me?

Cheers Mark

How about a 3070 ACCO used to haul Hotmix for the DMR here in Tassie

Cheers werkhorse, great pics mate.

Thanks Mark

Welcome to the forum Mate, that is a real Aussie ACCO 3070A for you, should be able to rattle up a few more. Regards Pete

I've got an Albion agi pic somewhere. Will dig it out.

Droooooooool. What dreams are made of.
A real mans truck. And it has to have no power steering.
My Leyland has a top speed of 32mph with a tail wind

Not going anywhere!
