Foden OG Recovery Truck

A unique and beautifully presented example of a Foden OG.

​

Originally supplied by S.A. Satterthwaite Ltd to a fruit and vegetable company the lorry was taken back after only a few months due to lack of payment. Rather than re-selling, Satterthwaites kept it for their own purposes and converted it to a recovery truck, the form it has stayed since. The original paintwork carry's a lovely patina, as such the lorry receives much attention and compliments when shown.

​

Very well sorted mechanically, the Gardner 4LK engine fires up quickly and pulls well. The gearbox has been fully reconditioned and a new clutch has also been fitted in recent years. The brakes have been fully overhauled with many new, original spec parts used.

​

The OG is a rare lorry and this is probably the only one still in its original working livery. It has been a reliable performer appearing at many shows throughout the year.
