Editor's Intro...
I got an email the other day from Alan Barnes reminding me that this issue will be number 250! I must admit that since HC has gone up from 92 to 132 pages I’ve been so busy it had slipped my mind. So I decided to go down into the ‘vaults’ to try to dig out an early copy, so I could see what things were like back then.

Classic Truck: Sweet Sixteen
5 August 2010
As far as Gary Harvey is concerned, the much-cherished F88 is no longer the Volvo to dream about. As he invites ‘Classic Truck’ to see for themselves, he reckons the F16 will soon be the must-have motor. Bob Tuck gets bowled over with what he finds.
