Bill Hammond from Dannevirke was on the show recently with his Ergomatic AEC. Bill was also instrumental in introducing us to Paul Gleeson, and Noel Gallaway, both of whom have been on the show. Bill himself has a number of interesting trucks and other vehicles hidden away and it was a pleasure to go with him and see them. Bill is a member of the Northern Classic Truck Club and they'll be enjoying their truck run over the Gentle Anne Road. We're standing next to Bill's LAD Dodge. Unfortunately we weren't able to film this due to prior committments. We'll be keeping in touch with Bill he knows too many people not to be in touch with him.
Thanks Bill Linda and I really enjoyed the day.
This is the Ergomatic AEC that Bill and I spoke about and went for a bit of a run in on the show.
It was the 3rd show in the 2nd series of Toll NZ Talking Trucks show.
The tilt cab was an interesting aspect of this truck, and the fact that Albion, AEC and Leyland went out of their way to design this cab with the driver foremost in the designs.
