A Fame Commercials, best known for its high-volume van bodywork and third-axle conversions on the Sevel family of chassis, has recently shown
some variations on the usual theme.
The vehicle with the highest profile is aim chemical decontamination unit for the Mersey Ambulance Service. it will work alongside the Mersey and Cheshire Fire Brigades at chemical spillages and traffic accidents where contaminated casualties can be cleaned up before being transported to hospital. Based on a Fiat DucatĀ° Maxi 2.8 Tdi, it features bodywork by 2(5 of Wellingborough on Fame's geodetic space frame twin rear axle chassis.
Rather less glamorous is Fame's kerbside collection vehicle, which is designed for local authorities to collect recyclable Waste from domestic premises, sorting various materials into separate galvanised stillages. The low floor provides a comfortable working height for sorting; specifications can be adapted to suit customers' requirements.
