However 1969 Laybird book of Commercial Vehicles has a very similar 6x4 with low loader and says it's a Silver Knight. So Silver Knight T3266C ? Can the owners name be read ? -- Last edit: 2017-07-06 20:14:48
tore-40 ◊ 2017-07-06 21:02	Seems to be 'Harvey Transport'?
dsl ◊ 2017-07-06 22:13	Agree 'Harvey Transport' - screen grabs at Link to "autoshite.com" might be slightly clearer. Seems still going today in Newton Abbot as a bus company, possibly with associated Harvey Haulage off-shoot.
jcb ◊ 2017-07-12 09:25	Silver Knight T3266C a safe bet .

240 Gardner ◊ 2017-09-14 13:10	Certainly Mk.1 Silver Knight (exposed radiator, Mk.1 cab), and probably not a particularly heavyweight one, given that it doesn't have a heavy duty bogie. T3266C would seem likely. -- Last edit: 2017-09-14 13:36:08
