Some nice Thames Trader's there, the NC model with one of the later K series. The difference is in the engine, the 2700E engine replacing the Fordson Diesel (but not petrol). Discontinued in July 67, with the Fordson Petrol engine going at the same time. 6 cylinder industrials also stopped, 4 cylinder engines carried on till April 1970 then till 74 4 cylinder diesel engines were supplied to Ford by Ebro. They continued using it till 1980. 2700E engines lasted longer.
