Leyland Beaver, Coast to Coast Towing

Truck Show Hopu Hopu March 1999

 

I have managed to track down the former owner of the this truck. It is a 1971 Leyland Beaver, originally twin steer,single drive.

During the rebuild to a wrecker it was fitted with a later model Buffalo grill.

The owner has told me that he could afford a new rear or a new cab but not both. So he grafted on the new rear to the cab and chassis.

But he said it was not a success and wasn't up to the work. The rear is now on a MAN cab and chassis and this cab and chassis was sold down country.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He could remember the occasion of the photo.

 

 

 

 

So there we go, a Mackmoth no more.
