Shelvoke & Drewry

'P' SERIES REVOPAK     For 1978, the all-new 'P' Series made its debut. It used a steel cab now made 'in-house' by Shelvoke, which was developed at a relatively low cost. Specialist builders such as SD could not afford excessive design and production costs because of the small number of vehicles produced for sale. The 'P' cab consisted of a simple framework which was then finished with various sized steel sheets. The group that designed this futuristic-looking new chassis was headed by none other than Tom Tillson, who had developed the 'T' Type back in 1959! 'P' Series models began being badged as 'Shelvoke' during the 1980s 10/1/04 (Revised 1/17/10) © 2004, 2010 All Rights Reserved Photos from factory brochures/advertisements except as noted Logos shown are the trademarks of respective manufacturers
