. "Annis & Company Limited were heavy hauliers based at Hayes in Middlesex near London, England who never manufactured any vehicles before so just like the Redler firm did, ANNIS also built their own original trucks alone, although they were all shortlived. This company constructed two special roadtractors of 6X4 form to begin using stocked parts from Diamond Reo lorries taken from leftover US Army war surplus trucks. Annis acquired these parts and allowed them to build modified Diamond Reo 980T models but fitted with alternative parts. The new Annis Roadtractor Diesel as it was known retained the US Diamond REO chassis and other spares but were all powered by a British Gardner Diesel 8LW engines and heavy duty Leyland transmissions. Production was only about 12 trucks made by Annis & Co Ltd."@en . . . . . . .
