Michelin's truck delivery fleet in the UK will be augmented by 22 mixed Bedford and Ford 5-ton vans fisted with a new York lightweight aluminium body that saves 9 cwt. Also new are the livery and logo; the top haY of the body is yellow with "Michelin" in blue lettering, while the lower section is the original aluminium with a "running" Bibendum representation.

The loader, which embodies Ratcliff electro-hydraulic equipment In a Locomotors van body, is seen here in action servicing a Boeing B707 airliner of Pa4fie Western Airlines.
