Fantastic Fred :thumbup: wonder who owned the Mustang 220? Looks superb did she have the Perkins V8 in her?

Thanks Jeremy,
The 220 belonged to Hywel Mason of Mason Bros. It was its first outing under their ownership and he was telling me he was a bit apprehensive but all appeared to go reasonably well. It did have the Perkins 510 V8.
A few lorry pics below.

Hi Dylan; must say that I had heard that there would be no working plant field this year, I don't know if anybody else can confirm this? I won't be making the trip down there this year and have my hands full at the moment.
