Now here's a couple of 'Likely Lads'. In fact they're two of my favourite 'Cloggies'. The tall guy on the left is Iep van der Meer who's got a great website and blog in his own right. The one on the right is Pete Zadelaar, a great Anglophile and Iep's co-driver---together they brought the wonderful Iveco Strator bonneted behemoth over to Truckfest and T&D's stand. Pete was delighted to see the Lancester that flew over the Peterborough showground and he also got a terrific Dinkey car transporter (he's a keen model truck collector too). Now here a a few of Biglorryblog's final memories of Truckfest.
If you're going to have a mobile home what better one to have than one based on a Peterbilt rigid. Big enough, as Ertha Kitt would say, to have a bowling alley in the back...
BLB was most taken by Benton's immaculate anniversary Daf XF105...expect to see more of this smart cabover in the coming months in the pages of Truck & Driver.
OK so I can't resist an ERF, I admit it. But this is a very smart ECX and as it's my blog it's going in. Especially if it's an Olympic. Now click through here for more including a three-legged "Swamp Thing".
Now you're talking Classic waggons! Here's a couple of old Swedish big bangers for all you Griffin fans...
And I promised you a three-legged "Swamp Thing". I happened to be wataxching just as the car-crushing monster truck landed on the ground and lost it's off-side rear wheel. Fortunately it didn't go anywhere it shouldn't (i.e. into the crowd) and I understand it was fixed and ready to roll on the Monday.
And that's yer lot from Truckfest 2008! Oh alright..here's another ECX. Go on, you know you can't resist them.

So what's wrong with not being able to resist an ERF??
Hope your next shot of Benton's splendid anniversary motor has one of my boxes on its back!
