RIP Mr Hotson
Somehow I missed this but I was triggered when I heard some of Mr Hotson's trucks are coming onto the market.
I had the pleasure of meeting him back in 2007 when I was visiting Canada and Stewart took me on a tour to visit CMP afficionados. Mr Hotson came across as an honest and hard working man. Mr Hotson on the left in front of his C30, with Stewart on the right: P1010383.jpg Being a "farmer-engineer", he made some interesting conversions to adapt his trucks to modern traffic. New Michelin 9.00-16 tyres were apparent, but also things like a modern brake booster and updated wiring system: P1010382.jpg Gordon Yeo posted a pic of his F60H in the thread on Bill Gregg's F60H. Apparently both of these came out of the same yard. Photos - 2154 Ford 4x6.jpg
