Rolls Royce B60, Which is a straight 6 4250 cc petrol engine |
|
designed for military applications and was used in the Daimler |
|
ferret. |
|
My Dennis D series, built some 22 years later was running the |
|
same engine, albeit rebored from new to increase the capacity to |
|
4887cc and called the B61. |

... one of the first things I drove !, probably age 11- 12 !, |
|
had an Allison automatic - I remember my sister hit some doors |
|
in a Commer but it was no problem, my Granddad was ace ! (chief |
|
engineer at Kent fire brigade workshops, until retirement 1977) |

Wish mine was automatic, its got a back to front manual which is |
|
great when you don't drive it regularly.. |
