1969 'T' type Fore & Aft tipper with Powerpress The popular Fore & Aft tipper was continued into the T-Type era. As with earlier models, the Powerpress option and bin loaders were carried over to an updated body structure. By 1961 some 2,500 Fore & Aft tippers had been made, and the model remained popular through the decade, especially for the pickup of denser wastes. Tankers also received the new T-Type cab & chassis.
