I believe this is a Thornycroft with Lewin sweeper equipment. Its unusual because the bonnet is so far in front of the axle in pics it looks like a forward control.![[Image: roadsweeper07.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/3808/roadsweeper07.jpg) http://www.na3t.org/road/photo/JM12085 -- Last edit: 2014-07-16 12:10:35 |
