by the Hazlemere Motor Co. (Waltham Abbey) Ltd., of Waltham Abbey, Essex, this Pilotbodied Bedford TIC is intended primarily for bulk carriage of corn in the form shown above, but is designed to be usable in several distinct roles.
As the right-hand photographs show, from top to bottom, the vehicle can be used, with canvas tilt removed, as a normal high-sided tipper or, with the slotted single-piece extensions removed, as a dropside truck or tipper. It can be further knocked down to work as a flat, the drop-sides being completely removable, together with tailboard, centre posts and tie-chains; in this form only the headboard and rear corner pos.Is remain. (In each case, the photographs show only the near-side members removed.) • The aluminium alloy body was built by Pilot Works Ltd. and as a 20-cu.-yd. bulker, with leveroperated rear discharge aperture, is 15 ft. 6 in. long, 6 ft. 11 in, wide and 5 ft. high internally. Edbro 4LNS twin-front-ram tipping gear is used. The Bedford TK 7f-ton flitch-plated chassis has a Leyland 370-cu.-in, diesel engine and the front springs, clutch and air compressor are to heavyduty specification. Telescopic dampers are fitted at the rear axle. The body is left in natural finish, but the chassis-cab was coach-painted by Hazlemere Motor Co.
