For years we have looked after a Matador called LAE, I've got pictures from the 1960's of it and have met the original drivers. But they had another Matador TJB, which has just been bought back, by the original owners son.
Both of them back togther, at Matador HQ. You'll be able to watch the restoration on here.

Nearly 11000 Matadors made and this one is one of the last. Built in 1954 it got sold into commercial use with the milk marketing board, as a recovery truck. In 70 years it's had little use and the new owner, has found a Bob Ansel timber jib and anchors to fit. Will be an amazing Matador when its done.
