Series landys still at work?
« on: December 13, 2005, 19:34:48 »
I was in asda st helens and saw this in the carpark http://www.landyworld.co.uk/spgm/index.php?spgmGal=working&spgmPic=0&spgmFilters=#pic but unfortunatley the other pics I took seem to have not saved on my phone.  It got me thinking, does anyone one here still work their series landy?  Any photos of sign written ones?  

Cheers,

Mike

Fred Dibnah (now deceased) used to still use his Series for his steeplejacking.

Odd to see station wagon sides with a swing up gate...nice motor though.
Mine will be signwritten one day, back into southern electric colours, as in my pic below.

Boldy going where no one-ton has gone before...

There's a guy who runs a car and bike spares place near me, uses his every day, to fetch and carry his stock, I think its either a 2 or 2a, I'll have a look when I pass it again
