COLES HAVE IT COVERED
1970

Here we have a general leaflet called "Coles Have it Covered" from 1970 which details the types of cranes in the standard production line at this time. There were always other cranes being made but they would mostly have been variations of the current types. I remember seeing rail bogies in the yards for crane units to be fitted, there was also a range of army units being made at this time.

Which is why Coles are the biggest selling mobile cranes in Europe.
