I wonder why the 4 wheeler S21 has a different molding lower grill?
Some more good photos. Thanks.

I think it may have been for a front mounted pto pump to drive the mixer?

Craig these were from my part of the world and I can recall seeing them on a regular basis around the roads of the Black Country.

IIRC there are 2 survivors -- the well known restored one
And a much rougher one tucked away on a farm

I started work in 1977 and RMC were still using them. Although most of their mixers were Ford D Series by then.
