Hmmm you're a little optimistic if you hope that this thing will be identified ![]() |

Perhaps someone has books on dumpers. The number of makers is limited. This one is two-wheel-drive from around 1950-60, I guess. In Germany Zettelmayer was the first to produce dumpers in 1947, followed by Orenstein & Koppel in 1954. The idea started in the US and soon spread over all countries. As this is a South-African film which was made in Botswana it is most likely that it is a US or British make. Let's see who will identify it: the hunt is on! |

That is a very good tip, indeed! I found a (not very good) picture of a Barford brochure (showing model Bison, Beaver, or Bantam of 1970). ![]() Let me take that down as the maker. I will make some enquiries which model this one is. |

If you can even identify that, how come that there are still so many unidentified cars on the site ? ![]() Nice work ![]() |

Well, that is teamwork at its best! ![]() With a good hint you can find almost anything! PS: I just sent an eMail to the Barford company. Let's see if they can confirm it. |

Aveling-Barford,a Brand merged by Leyland into '60s(recall those front tipper bucket trucks thru a Dinky model toy seen on a 1977-78 catalogue) |

Also the tent-roofed bus isn't less interesting,being a 1970 circa Nissan Civilian modified as desert shuttle-bus |

So Barford? because it missed its Aveling parts of body ? ![]() seriously, Aveling-Barford or Barford? ... I'd tend to the first personnally but.. ![]() |

Aveling-Barford was also Make of heavy quarry-dumpers |

Aveling-Barford became part of Wordsworth Holdings which set up a new branch of small site dumpers under the name Barford. Have a look at the eighth paragraph here. |

![]() Actually I don't want to deprive all the others of the fun of identifying an unknown vehicle! ![]() With every sixth new make being identified or send in by me I am already very selfish! ![]() -- Last edit: 2006-10-15 22:23:10 (sixcyl) |

But how do you know that it's not a Benford or a Thwaites?? It looks to have room only for a small two cylinder Lister or Petter engine, which would indicate those two makes. -- Last edit: 2008-01-20 22:53:32 |
