Articulated Truck #50

Post by johnboy »

This is probably a silly question because it's not my area but I can't see a white cab listed for this truck, there's probably a simple answer. (It's paired up with a #30 dumpster, which is how it came in a small collection). It has a 1973 England base. Can anyone help? thanks

Hi JB, the cab is from a #63 Freeway Gas Tanker, commonly found with 'Exxon' labels or 'BP Super' labels on the rear tanker section, it can be found with other labels aswell.

The image below is from Vectis
