Good stuff mate, I've changed the title slightly so people know exactly what the report is
swweeeet !! a reliant "ant" pick up truck bury council had some of those in the mid to late 70's and judging by the yellow and chocolate brown colour scheme on this one it is an ex bury council one !!
ya mean the yellow pick up? love it such a random little pick up! - just thinking off hand ya reckon you can search with that number plate... i remember there used to a txt msg service you could txt a number plate to and it'd give ya loadsa random info on it
plus if you look at the side of the truck it says "peter riggs and son" - i googled it turns out to be a garden centre owner!
the place was abandonded too but had active cctv - or seemingly so anyway - but wonder if theres more veichals inside? :P cant seem much of it head on but on satalite maps the place looks pretty big!
Wow those pics look wierd.
the garden centre probably owned it afterwards but i'm pretty sure that is bury councils livery from that era , worth noting the "ant " or TW9 , three wheeled 9 were pretty much all baught by local authorities with very few that went to private owners
they were sold by reliant as a chassis and cab unit and local authorities sent them on for further work for the specific use a lot were just flat beds or pick ups but they also appeared as small bin wagons ,street sweepers , snow ploughs , and even as small tractor units
Some nice vintage classics there - nice effort :)
Nice motors. Not nice clown trousers.
I always like seeing old stuff, the old ERFs are brilliant.
soo thats where it is i have asked someone else about that car in pic 3 before with eve n a view of trying to buy the grill form it its quite like my old car (1934 Standard 10 Hotrod) and bits are getting hard to come by shame to see it sat there looking so sorry for its self , i would like to see them original but your HDR stuff looks good too i need to learn how to do it..
