Do you recognise this Volvo F10? The Boss wants more information on it..so naturally Biglorryblog is here to help.

'The Boss' is after some information...on the above waggon. F10 by the reg number of MOM916X...ring any bells, jog any memories? Who had it? Who drove it?

 

He tells BLB: "Rob, the top recovery specialist at Cannon Commercials down here in the West Country has taken on a restoration project because we are all such great drivers he doesn't have much to do! The project is to rebuild back to new this Volvo F10.32 4x2,reg MOM 916X. The information Rob has is that it once had tipping gear and worked in the Norfolk area. Any info that BLB could supply Rob would be grateful since I told him BLBers know everything!"

 

Well indeed they do Boss--OK that's a challenge. For the undying gratitude of The Boss, Rob (and for a pie) what can anyone tell me about the above waggon? 'Two-Stroke'--ring any bells with you and your records? If it ran in Norfolk sounds like an ex-Duffields machine...

 

Anyway, click through here for another shot of the old beast...that's the truck, not The Boss!

Malcolm Howling:

Hi, This lorry belonged to me and we purchased it in 1987 from Volvo of Norwich for myself when I was 23 years old. We sold 2 of them about 1 year ago. We were the second owners as far as we know. It was blasted and sprayed by me many times, gearbox is origonal, engine is not. It should have a TD100B but now has a TD100GA. The cab is off a slightly later one as it has a slightly darker interior. I drove it myself for about 10 years then our fitter drove it and then my father. We then stood it up. If you require any more info on it please email me or call 01553 828593 and ask for Malcolm or leave a contact phone no. R W Howling and Son. Hundreds of pictures of it have been taken all over the country!!
