F7 eight wheeled tipper with the 16speed gearbox,once you mastered that gearbox there’s nowhere it wouldn’t go on or off road and I used to think Scammel and Foden were unbeatable off road but these trucks with that 6-7 litre engine and the T-ride suspension would go anywhere,superb vehicle it’s no wonder they were so popular,happy days.

One of the best truck ever built. This and Volvo f86 was awesome trucks. The engine TD 70 was a killer machine. My dad had a Volvo f86 1974-1989..the only thing he need to do was fill up the with diesel,check the oil and the ordinary service,nothing more! Great trucks.

Never saw a “Globetrotter” conversion on a F7 before. They were great wee motors. We had 3 of them and there was lots of useable space inside the cab, way more than you got in the later FL cab range. We had the 246bhp with 16 speed box.

My Dad RIP drove a 6x4 f7. Lovely truck for its time. Have fond memories spending my summer holidays with him at work. I especially love the sleeper 4x2 tractor units. A lovely dainty little work horse.

My favourite Volvo truck series.
Used to be a common sight here in Sydney.
Still see them occasionally.

we had an F7 tractor unit, great to drive loved it, unlike todays volvo trucks which are built like a block of flats. the F88 was also great

[@David-mk8gm]

[@andrewclarke615]

Drove F7s, for J.W.Cousins, they had a few different ones, mostly tractor units, 2 eight wheel tippers, and a six wheeler. They had one of the last F7s, for 38 tonnes, which is now preserved,(French transport, now has it).
