Remember these? Quoting "240 Gardner" on TruckNet forum:
"I remember also a feature on CHI in Comical Motor, about their one-off baby artic (7.5T gross, perhaps?) based on a Ford A Series. Remember the A Series? Like a Transit on steroids.

I suppose that this would have been in the early 80s, and I vaguely recall the trailer having a tilt body. Probably had a payload of 15 cwt!"

We'll soon be taking a look inside this Chris Hudson brochure. After I left CHI, I started work with a graphic design company and now run my own marketing agency (sounds grand, but it's just me!). I didn't appreciate it at the time, but this would have been very costly to produce with die-cut pages.

"Many years experience managing CHI inward traffic movements, and therefore extremely competent and knowledgeable of all the personalities involved in our overall group"
So says Colin's bio in the CHI brochure.
What are your memories of Mr Clayton?

Louis Boon has just sent us these pictures of the Monoframe marketing leaflet. If you scroll back to 11 January 2019, you'll see it in the background of the Chas King picture.
