Just found this forum and thought I better join! Chuffed to see that my cargo is a classic! I've just got a Ford Iveco Cargo horsebox and in need of much advice - are there any club members in Norfolk, UK?

Im not in Norfolk but your defenatly in the right place for advice is there anything in particular you need advice on my advice if it drives well has good chassis and the cab is in decent condition then it seems like you got a pretty good one as the engines seem bullet proof but rust seems the biggest killer of these old ladies I got 2 a 1988 0813 ex library then converted to a horsebox now in fairground use and I love her also got a 1997 75e15 almost finished restoring her then again going to be put into fairground use these trucks just go on forever it seems good luck and have fun with your truck

Thanks for the reply. Main problems with the cargo 813 are that I cannot get it into reverse! Also, the accelerator cable keeps slipping of its spindle - I can reach this by opening the panel on the front, and have fitted a kind of washer to it - but this sometimes slips off too! Any ideas how I can stop this happening?
