This beauty is the hard work of Fred Everiss and a few friends. Fred worked for Gilder for 18 years so has good reason to have this lovely 111 painted in the maroon livery. Fred has also sent me some pictures of the 111 in its earlier life. Originally a dutch truck it has some good international history so i’ll try and get the pics of that on here too. Good work Fred, keep it up!
