Details: The original Ford Cargo range was replaced in the early 1990s by an Iveco-designed version. All variants carry the same design of cab, but the mounting height gives an indication as to the weight and power.
-The 7.5 tonne version has flush mudguards and a single step into the cab. One service vehicle based on this model has been purchased and bodied as a mini-dustcart.
-The 11-13 tonne version has slightly proud mudguards and two steps into the cab. Examples are 2535F and 2546F.
-The 17 tonne Super Cargo has wide mudguards and three steps into the cab, as seen in this view of 2522F, a 17-tonne Dropside Lorry at Acton Works on 2nd April 1993.
In each case a different bumper moulding makes up the height on the front.
