That is a British built Taylor Jumbo. No details on that one, but I recollect that they based some on ex-WD Morris Commercial C8 trucks, this one may be mounted on a Ford chassis as it has a V8 fitted. Richard

Ian,
Take a look at this link, it is the history of Taylors (who were later taken over by Coles Cranes), and shows a similar crane dated c.1949 www.taylorbusinesspark.co.uk/history.asp Richard
