A great shot of a line of 1950's Kew-built Dodge 123 Ballast Tippers sent in by Mike Wilson. This was a publicity photo to promote a great 1957 film called 'Hell Drivers' directed by the American exile Cy Endfield.

Editors note: I remember seeing this film when it first came out at my local cinema. I'd have been about 12 yrs old at the time. It must have influenced me as in later years, I became a H.G.V. Class 1 lorry driver myself. Did I mention Stanley Baker? Well, I'm more interested in the trucks.
