Yes thanks. The last time I sat in a LAD Dodge was 1966 as a 6 year old. Dad's yard was on the way home from school and you can imagine the excitement of a new K series with tilt cab.

Re the Sambron the early machines are AM10 the later machine was the S25 and was only 2wd
When we sold them at Weatherills we gave it the nickname ooslambird and hoped they would disapear.
If you got air in the hydraulic rams it would twist and catch the cab a company in Irland got so fed up with it the cut 3" off the cab height and employed a shorter driver.
