Looks as if Ready Mix Concrete wasn't such a new innovation after all.... :)

Your little joke isn't so far from the truth. This was indeed an early attempt at an "all-in-one" road laying machine. I'm afraid it doesn't get you a point, though. Another view.

Not a Dennis. Not British.

Exactly. Easy if you know  ;D. My notes reckon it's a 3-1/2 ton model 70D.

Thank goodness I can put this one away.
