1992 Ford Cargo 0813 7 5 ton.

[@jaggass]

I've never forgotten the sound of a Ford Cargo 0813 and how badly they rusted. The Dover engine just kept going though. I did think the Iveco Eurocargo was a huge leap forward

[@adamtyrell4227]

Loved these trucks and drove several during the 1980s and 1990s the truck would keep on going,it was an hard working truck 👍

[@ShaunMurray63]

Same era that I come from by the sounds of it .

[@WranglingUAE]

This brings back memories! I used to do European runs in a day cab 0813 with a box on the back when I was 18-19 years old. No night heater, no bunk, no curtains and no sat nav. Loved every second of it…!!! When I was 19 the owner upgraded our fleet and I got a Leyland Daf 45 with the high roof, was like someone gave me a Bentley.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Hello Steven , yes it's in pretty good nick to say it's 31yrs old.

[@billienomates1606]

Nice example, thanxs 4 sharing.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Thanks for looking.

[@billienomates1606]

Well it is a nice truck, especially with the sleeper cab. Would look good with an R.V. unit of the back.@@ShaunMurray63

[@ShaunMurray63]

[@MHLivestreams]

Can't remember what engine mine had, but it was probably the slowest cargo 813 ever!

They're a very sharp looking rig though I wish this had the 10 stud wheels. You can can see they strived to give the cab interior car like comfort levels, much like Japanese trucks do. I imagine those plastics are subject to deterioration in harsh conditions.

[@jaggass]

Rust was a bigger issue.

[@jamesfrench7299]

Pity. They were a great looking truck.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes they started getting there act together with the interiors but cab rust was a problem.

[@jamesfrench7299]

I hate rust. Ford D series and Cargos were once a common sight in Australia. I recall them as street sweepers used by my local council in the 1990s. Probably among the last built. I recently came across a derelict heavy three axle example with a box body parked in an industrial area with spider wheels and yellow CAT motor visible when looking under the cab. Some of the final Cargos sold here became very Americanised wirh their engines and running gear.

[@jaggass]

@@jamesfrench7299 We never got the artic one with the Cummins L10 just the 7.5t models.

[@SuperFIFTHGEAR]

Are you selling it? Looks nice. Can't say I know much about these.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes I've made the video as a selling tool.
