Excellent clips showing what they do best. Alcos are my favourite sound. I love the turbo hiss you can hear.
Here is an AEC recovery truck you might like, dating from the early 70s going through the gears in NZ. It s powered by an AEC 760 with roadranger gearbox. I used to ridebuses with a rear mounted horizontally mounted version of this engine. I'm sure you will be impressed.



Here are two 30 sec clips of it from outside.
