Great old photos.Verner, thanks for sharing them with us.
Seeing the number plates on the scrapers
is a reminder of how we used to tramp the roads with the things.(TheGood Old Days)

No-one thought to fit a mirror on scrapers in the early days. Might have saved a few twisted necks too.
Good to see some old pics.
