Foden FGTU 8/80 (6x4)


What is your favourite truck of all time?


Classic Foden FGTU 8/80 (6x4) ( McKelvie and Co Ltd )


McKelvie added the Foden FGTU 8/80 to their fleet in 1957. Having the eight-cylinder Gardner engine, eight-speed gearbox and two-speed rear diffs, these Fodens offered one of the best available heavy haulage crew cabs of the period. Although heavy haulage is not today a McKelvie speciality, during the 1950s and 1960s they had risen to become Scotland's largest operator in this form of traffic.
