It wasn't planned, getting the Suicide Squad, & Golden Compass trucks together, more a case of where I could stand

Unpropped body;

(dedication though, cleaning the inside of the chassis rails)

ERF/Atkinson; I remember them well, too
Lepton's not that far to the other side of Wakefield, from me
(on the main A642 Wakefield - Huddersfield road)

A stables/riding school not too far from me. has apparently acquired 2 'Green Godesses'! (Bedford RLs)

From my files;
This was owned by a local greengrocer, I'll presume they retained the plate, if not the van?
