Notes By The Current Owner - Hugh Saunders:
The Stencil is made up using the numbers of my date of birth and marked up to 3886 truck company Red Ball Express the number 7 comes from the book seven pillars of wisdom written by TE Laurence (Laurence of Arabia) and was also the former fleet number of my last vintage lorry.
She has a replica gun ring and 50cal and was restored by Graham Fife in Kent from 1996 onwards. It was then sold to Mr George Paice of Croydon. I then purchased her in 2007.
Artwork for 'Detroit Dotty' is by the awarding winning tattoo artist Tori Ford.
