Excellent news! Does it include photo(s) of the rare Mack NR 14 with mounted crane as used by RCE road construction companies,too?
Will you have an european distributor, or is it best to order from you overseas?

Damn! I knew that too because the photo comes from a Ford catalogue.
I will set up a web page for errata on this book so keep them coming.

Okay.....love the book! Great job Clive. A couple of points....P.225 shows a Lorry 3 Ton GS 158 WB with 5F1,5W1,5W4 bodies. To me, it appears to be a 134 WB with a 4A1 GS body.....Fords in the top photos, Chev in the lower one.

Also, being a fan of the Ward Lafrance M1A1 Heavy Wrecker I was looking forward to seeing it in the Wrecker section. They were used apparently by the Railway Operating Coys of the RCE.

I'm looking forward to Vol 2.

Cheers,

Neil
