Bedford TK570 (EHG) 220cu in Diesel. Birmingham City Council Engineers. It has been a long time since i saw one of these on the road, +/- 30 years, they were everywhere round Birmingham. The Housing Department had the same tippers but they were light green or latterly white, TK570 again but (EDG) 214cu in petrol. These & the Telecom TK's were everywhere. Is it really that long ago? The Telecom trucks are hard to find with the original body still on, yellow cab interior/underside & silver chassis paint tell what it used to be.
What a shame, I missed out on buying an ex GPO box truck which was complete the guy couldn't wait for me and cleared his yard and flattened the TK with a loader and weighed it in for scrap, still searching.
