ERF Lorries
ERF Limited was formed in 1933 when Edwin Richard Foden founded the company with his son Dennis. Under the guidance of design engineer Ernest Sherratt, the best components available at the time were assembled to create vehicles that soon earned a reputation as good lorries capable of earning good revenue with reasonable running costs. This approach continued, more or less, until the end of the company and proved to be a very successful and lucrative business plan with a lot of development costs being borne by the component suppliers.
This book is a broad overview of the company, with almost 200 photos offering an insight into the range and model types that spanned the years. The majority of the images included here are previously unpublished and offer a wonderful tribute to this much-loved manufacturer.
Dit boek werd uitgegeven naar aanleiding van de 80e verjaardag van de bouw van de eerste ERF vrachtwagen. Bevat een beknopte geschiedenis en zo'n 90 foto's. De meeste afbeeldingen in dit boek zijn nooit eerder gepubliceerd.
Patrick Dyer's eighth book in the 'at work' series takes the reader on a journey with ERF, England's last independent truck manufacturer, between the years 1975 and 1993 with the B, C, CP and E-series trucks that the Sandbach based company produced in the face of overwhelming competition from foreign manufacturers.
Apart from the renowned economy, reliability and longevity of the products, the B, C, CP and E-series truck ranges were all linked by the remarkable SP cab, which combined a steel cage with bolt on SMC panels. The system was so revolutionary that ERF patented it. The low cost of design and manufacture allowed it to update and improve its cabs with each series.
"ERF B, C, CP & E-series at Work" draws on over 200 fine photographs from the manufacturer and trucking enthusiasts, which combine with the informative text to tell the remarkable story of these ERF products through some of the most turbulent years of the company's existence.
This book is a companion to the hugely popular Lorries of Arabia: ERF NGC, published in 2015. The first book made tribute to ERF's world-class long-hauler, focussing in particular on the Middle-East examples, and to those who drove them. It was acclaimed for its "evocative photographs" and Robert's "passionate" and descriptive style of writing and Truck and Driver called it "essential reading for the many enthusiasts of this golden chapter in haulage history".
Lorries of Arabia 2 continues to explore the fortunes of this legendary machine. Including 100 fully captioned pictures, many of which have only been brought to light since the publication of Lorries, this volume clearly demonstrates the romance of the road.
This book will enhance and enrich the body of knowledge pertaining to the culture of the Middle-East run in the 1970s/80s and will further delight fans of the first book, whetting their appetite for more.
This is the third and final volume in The Lorries of Arabia Series. The first book made tribute to ERF's world-class long-hauler, focusing in particular on the Middle-East examples, and to those who drove them.
