Leyland Motors always had a big Bus, Truck and Commercial Vehicle business and in 1961 when it took over Standard Triumph and gained gained the Standard light vans. After the creation of British Leyland in 1968 Leyland Trucks continued, becoming in 1975 the autonomous Truck and Bus Division, and then Leyland Vehicles in 1978. Light trucks were given a 'new' G-cab in 1968 which was actually an evolution of the BMC F-cab, and they were managed under the Leyland Redline range, whilst bigger trucks went into the Leyland Blueline range. In 1986 British Aerospace takes control of British Leyland and the Trucks operation is surplus to needs and eventually is floated off into a new joint venture 'Leyland DAF' with DAF Trucks. In 1998 Leyland Trucks, private since 1993, is acquired by the American Truck organisation Paccar and currently produces 3 model lines of trucks.
