Moreton C Cullimore Pioneer Rec

This new addition to the Oxford rangem the Pioneer, was produced between 1937 and 1945. It served throughout WWII as an artillery tractor, as well as being used as a 6 x 4 heavy breakdown vehicle. After the end of the war, the Pioneer proved most useful in civilian life in the roles of heavy haulage, forestry, fairground and recovery, lasting well into the 1980s. The Gloucestershire based sand and gravel haulage company of Moreton C Cullimore bought this particular recovery tractor and have restored it completely in their corporate colour scheme, even down to the detail of giving it a name from Charles Dickens' novels, in line with all their fleet.
