Morris Minivan, 1961. Reg. no. 82 PAF. Chassis no. M/AV4/205400, engine no. 8AM/FAU/H 2080188. The Morris Mini-Minor is one of the most iconic British cars from the sixties. This is an example of the van version of the Mini which went on sale in June 1960. Its compactness and good road holding made it popular not only amongst shopkeepers but also with the thrifty motorist with a low price of £360 due to the exemption of vans from purchase tax. This van was owned and used by Mr Roger Matthews in the family electrical business in Cornwall and was maintained by him until 1981. In 20 years of use only the tyres and exhaust had to be replaced after 116,186 miles.

Foden 4-axle rigid chassis, 1970, with Holmes blower and 700 cubic ft. metalair tipping tank for granulated sugar. Chassis no. 67990. Registration no. BUU 990H. Foden Trucks date to 1856 with a small engineering company in Cheshire. Foden Trucks gained a reputation for quality engineering and played a key role in the evolution of commercial road transport up until it was absorbed by PACCAR Inc in 1980. This example was part of a large fleet of tankers that worked for the sugar giant Tate & Lyle Ltd. They had to deliver sugar from the London depots to a number of confectionary factories in southern England, and had been specially modified for the job. The sugar was discharged by tipping the tank and then blown out with compressed air from the Holmes blower.

F.W.D. type B. lorry, 1917-19. The Four Wheel Drive Auto Company was formed in Clintonville, Wisconsin, USA in January 1909 after Otto Zachow and William Besserdich developed and built the first successful four wheel drive car, the ‘Battleship’. They soon switched to making trucks due to the four-wheel drive’s success in military tests, and in 1916 the American government made their first order of 38 trucks. More orders followed and by early 1917 400 FWD had been shipped to Britain, becoming essential equipment for artillery haulage and ammunition supply in the First World War. By end of 1918 over 5000 had been shipped to Europe, over 3000 to Britain. In 1921 Britain were able to manufacture FWDs calling them Quads. This particular one was supplied to the US Ordnance Department and was subsequently in use in France until the 1930s as a mobile optician’s surgery.
