From Graces Guide

1957 Company established to build heavy-duty trucks based on the Sentinel. When Sentinel failed their main UK dealer North Cheshire Motors purchased the stock of vehicles and parts and continued production under the TVW name

The range included tractor units and four and six-wheeled rigids rated from 19 to 24 tons. They abandoned the Sentinel engine and used Gardner, Meadows, Perkins, Leyland and Rootes diesels. Cans were by Boalloy and Williams (of Grappenhall)
