Hi David and Alan,
Received my copy today. Thanks for this wonderfull publication! Surprisingly, I recently got a photo from a M6 High Speed Tractor as displayed on pages 18-21 in the book. On the back of the photo the following text: "Souvenir of 241 Super Heavy Battery, 61st Super Heavy Regiment, R.A., Groenlo, Holland, May 1945". Marco

M6
Wow! What a photo! Is there a high-resolution version available please? I might be able to use it in VINTAGE ROADSCENE magazine.
Regrettably Alan is very ill in hospital and has been for some weeks. I do hope you guys want a follow-up (or two) book in the same vein!

The link to the contents doesn't work. It needs a . after www. Maybe you can amend. Rick

The # 12 Cab CGT was supposedly the first vehicle assembled at Cuerden Mill, Bamber Bridge, near Preston, Lancashire which would have been May? 1941. The old woollen mill was taken over by General Motors Ltd. Last edited by David_Hayward (RIP); 30-01-09 at 00:25.

Pearsons book
Just like to say I have now seen it and the photographs as well as the quality of printing are absolutely outstanding!
My favourites are the post-war conversions of the C8 cab 12s into vans, including a most unlikely woodie and ice cream van.
