Description

Lorries in Britain: The 1980s by Carl Johnson explores a pivotal decade in British trucking history. As foreign manufacturers gained ground, many UK-built lorries were still in use, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. This collection of previously unpublished photos brings back memories of how things used to be. The book delves into the story of these remaining British-made vehicles, which gradually disappeared as time passed. With its wealth of archival images, Lorries in Britain: The 1980s is a nostalgic look at a period that shaped the UK's transportation landscape. A must-have for anyone interested in the history of British trucks and the automotive industry, this book provides a unique insight into a fascinating era.
