Does the heart good to see this in 2024.
Awesome!
Gives you presence and respect on the road
Fantastic. We need people like you to keep these machines alive. It's are History
Compared to the previous iterations of AEC, that would be a doddle to drive, it will have the luxury of power steering, they were a bit heavy without it…. Only a few gears to play tunes on if doubling the clutch went wrong!
Lovely old truck.
Seen this outside your place when I was on holiday,clean machine
Hope it comes back to Bedfordshire!
What a beast. When trucks were trucks not automatic air con computers
I have heard that due to no heater , the drivers were issued with a razor blade to scrape the ice off the air guage in a morning to enable the driver to know when the brakes were able to work . earlier models had an external radiator cap that when removed provided hot water to shave in on a cold frosty morning . .....lovely .
Lovely.
I remember it well, back in the day
Haven’t seen all over this truck. With its history presumably low mileage. Living accommodation on the back, you can take this AEC anywhere. Ideal for commercial vehicle rally’s.
Love the expression proper lorry Yes you do have to now how to drive something like that no offence but not many new hgv drivers could jump in and take it away always wanted to drive an AEC never got the chance. Would have been nice to see inside cab but still enjoyed it
very interesting BUT it is an A E C MAMMOTH MAJOR not LEYLAND it cannot be both in 1965, BUT keep us updated THANKS.
It is indeed a Mammoth Major built at Southall but Leyland bought out AEC in 1962 so in a way it is both.
IT IS an (A E C mammoth major) if it was a leyland it would be a (leyland octopus) you know the one about, if my aunty had you know what she would have been my unclewe could go on forever but it is good fun THANKS.keep smiling.
If your into trucks it's perfect, you could convert it into a camper without changing a thing on the outside
I drove these back in early 60s. Manual steering, very heavy when loaded. Slow, 150 hp 6 gears. Extremely noisy in cab. Poor brakes. Stifling hot in Summer. Poor heater, freezing in Winter. Bone shattering ride quality. I hated it. Nostalgia is just a dream..
Volume 😏
Well buy it then

Why are so many classic vehicles going round and round each auction it wes at ACA auction about a month or two ago some classic vehicles are a con
Jim’s old motor
you need arms like popeye no power steering
When men were men 😊
That's an AEC, designed and built by AEC, not Leyland. Very unprofessional and lacking in commercial vehicle knowledge to call a pure AEC a Leyland AEC, completely unheard-of in the trade.
