The blue one that you refer to-

'Tis a Hindustan Trekker.

Is it worth restoring? I wonder. Many parts were shared with the venerable Hindustan Ambassador.

Re: The Classic Commercial Vehicles (Bus, Trucks etc) Thread

The older Tata trucks (Tata 1210) with the crane body sourced from Army disposal, are quite popular in the Guwahati- Shillong sector. There are the older Tata 1210 trucks too plying on the highway between these two cities.
The cranes are lined up on the roads and their numbers indicate that these may be finding use for recovery work.
