Volvo FH Curtainside Lorry David Bletsoe Brown

The David Bletsoe-Brown group is a family owned business which was founded by the current Managing Director and Chairman, David Bletsoe-Brown, in 1976 with just one vehicle. Today, it operates with a fleet of forty lorries from its 2-acre site half a mile from Junction 7 of the A14 near Kettering. Its speciality is palletised distribution and the colourful two tone dark blue and light blue fleet can be seen throughout the UK, with one of its major clients being the Tesco supermarket chain.

Our 1:76 scale Oxford replica, registered S41 JDP, represents a curtainside lorry from the fleet decorated in their signature two-tone colour scheme with a silver roof and carrying a wealth of detail. Note particularly the intricately printed back doors, the curtain side ties along the sides of the trailer, the blue fuel tank straps and the roof visor component which is finished in a tinted transparent red.
