Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-08-12 04:12	Exxon oil truck?
Ddey65 ◊ 2011-08-12 05:07	Standard Oil of New Jersey didn't use the name "Exxon" until around 1972. More than likely, this has to be Esso.
zodiac ◊ 2011-08-12 10:24	I'd imagine the truck is a short bus, which leaves us with coach manufactures like Hägglunds, SKV (later; bought by Scania), Skandia (later; Helmark) and Höglunds (later; Säffle). Perhaps Hägglunds is the most likely alternative? The coulor is indeed ESSO, as Exxon was never sold in Sweden.
jcb ◊ 2011-08-12 10:29	Looks like a Bristol RE bus chopped ! But seriously this is a heavy truck chassis with a coachbuilt cab , the front bodywork covers the pumping gear, not unlike the AEC Superfueller.- http://p2.la-img.com/252/11474/2936069_1_l.jpg http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1960/1960%20-%201022.html -- Last edit: 2011-08-12 10:40:12
chris40 ◊ 2011-08-12 10:39	The step-ring on the front wheel has a British look. Could well be an AEC with a local body.
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-08-13 00:21	Yes, sure... ESSO colours and design. I forgot this, filmed in Sweden.

Ddey65 ◊ 2011-08-13 05:07	Gag Halfrunt wrote And it's still Esso in Europe. And if I'm not mistaken, Canada too. Here's another shot proving it's Esso. FYI, in other parts of the US it was Enco, and Humble.
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-08-13 16:38	Here in Argentina, too. Esso, but sold some products under the Exxon brand (lubricants, i think).
Pickos ◊ 2011-08-16 12:08	I'm quite sure that both the tanktrailer and the cab was built by ASJ (Aktiebolaget Svenska Järnvägsverkstäderna). I haven't found any good info about the company in english, but I found an short article on swedish Wikipedia. http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svenska_J%C3%A4rnv%C3%A4gsverkst%C3%A4derna I've also found some pictures of buses built by ASJ. The front and grille looks very similar to the on above. http://i676.photobucket.com/albums/vv125/s025bb/b12gn0002Medium.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2582/4207069442_b016aeb752.jpg And another tanker: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5271/5904767241_14fcf60418_b.jpg About the chassis, I really don't know. Most likely Scania-Vabis or Volvo, but ASJ also built several tankers on Mercedes chassis.

Most likely Scania-Vabis or Volvo, but ASJ also built several tankers on Mercedes chassis. The cab design, glass areas, and other trim details are very similar so ASJ is correct I think, Pickos. As the similar tanker is badged 'ASJ' on the radiator I suggest we use ASJ (make) plus aircraft refueler (other info.)
