THE Co-operative Society of Arnessysla, Iceland, who have been operating Albion& for many years, are adding four 7-ton Chieftains to their fleet. The trucks will have locally built bodies, suitable for dairy products, on the 13-ft. 6-in, wheelbase chassis.
Items of specification required by the operators include left-hand steering, road wheels designed for use with snow chains, and large-capacity heaters. The windscreen wipers are operated from a vacuum tank used for the braking system and will be sufficiently powerful to deal with heavy snow.
The cabs supplied will be of the latest type with a glazed area of 3,000 sq. in. The contract was won by Albion Motors' Iceland agents, Kaupfelag Arnesinga, of Self oss.
