PFN865 is
owned by group members Rob and Oliver Leighfield.
Vehicle details
PFN865 was supplied by
AEC to the East Kent Road Car Co. in June1959, with a Park Royal body.
It was based mainly at Thanet and Herne Bay until May 1973 when it was
lent to Maidstone and District at Chatham, and eventually transferred to
them in June 1974.
It was withdrawn from
service in 1975 and work began the following year to convert it to a tow
truck. This took some time and it did not begin work in this role
until January 1979, when it was based at Maidstone and later, Borough
Green.
It was sold in 1986 and
has had several owners since then, before being bought by the
Leighfields in 2011.
