• Article showing a bunch of AEC Trucks. *NM* *LINK*
  • Sorry, but I just could not keep from laughing at the name on these two brawny trucks... *PIC*
    • In looking at the one on the left, it surprises me that the exhaust discharges directly below the driver's window and (in Britain) into the face of oncoming traffic. Seems it should exhaust to the other side and downward? *NM* *PIC*
    • Every time I see a photo of one of their trucks I get a hamburger craving. The one on the left was probably used primarily off road. Its a Leyland Bison that has had a recent restoration. *NM*
    • Here's some more shots of Wimpy trucks including a good chassis detail of a Leyland Bison (unless you were the driver). *NM* *LINK*
    • FWIW, "Wimpy" is a burger chain in the UK. :-) *NM*
      • This Wimpy is a heavy haulage/construction company. *NM*
        • I figured as much. *NM*
