Foden FG/FE Lorry 1948
What is your favourite lorry of all time?
Foden's long history goes back to 1856 but, until the 1930s, production was mainly confined to steam powered vehicles. In 1931 the company turned its attentions to diesel-powered lorries using the Gardner engine, but later using several different makes of diesel engine. The first purpose built Foden rigid eight was the DG model of 1935. In 1948 Foden introduced the FG/FE range, featuring the stylish S18 cab with a concealed radiator. The classic FG / FE models helped establish Foden as one of the leading manufacturers of eight wheelers during the 1950s.
