ERF LAG

This lorry took part in the Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally in Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1998.

It's a 1973 ERF LAG with Gardner 100 diesel engine. I understand that the '100' refers to the bhp of the engine, in which case it would seem to be a 6LW 102hp 6-cylinder 8,370cc engine. The programme of the rally said this about the vehicle:

ERF LAG 160-12, 1973                                                                                                                          RTS 457

Entered by     Geoff Davison, Old Glossop
