Not for sale, but I am after a company or probably more fitting an owner/operator of a low loader with the ability and maybe experience of moving a Scammell Explorer truck, which doesn't run and is basically a rolling chassis. Needs to be picked up from Defford area, in Worcester and transported back to Cambridge area. A telehandler I hope will be available to push the truck onto the trailer and put the rear body back on to where it sits, but a winch may be useful. As I say, previous experience of moving something similar would be handy. Please get back to me with figures or questions, Cheers Russ. 07759309095

Good evening! Just re-reading some old posts on here....have you managed to do anything more on her? Be good to see. Cheers

Good morning, When you say going cheap, what is cheap? Are you able to get it shipped to the UK? Look forward to hearing from you, Russ

Hi Graeme, how much including the spacers? Cheers

Hi mate - where did you find them?! Cheers

Fair enough, guess he hasn't got it anymore then!! Cheers

Did this battery ever get bought?/what happened to it?

I might be able to get my hands on a 9x9 complete frame, ill have a word next time i see the person

Leave it with me, need to do some digging but might have one.

Hello mate, have you got sorted with this? Cheers

Hello - Did you acquire a 9x9 tent? I may well have the relevant poles and connectors for a 9x9 but no canvas. Would this be of any interest? Cheers

What sort of money is a reasonable offer?

Absolutely no link to the seller, but just come across a Scammell Explorer on eBay which is looking for a new home. Its in Colchester, Essex and looks in good nic http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1954-Scammell-Explorer-/182324958745?hash=item2a736a1619:g:RlMAAOSwHsRYC0Zq

What happened to the AEC MAT lump you took out?

Yes....i plan to put a GS body back on the red one....all in good time!!! (years!)

Haha both of my trucks have the same general dash setup. You mean on the fire service truck?

I'm based about 5/6 miles north of Cambridge. The dash is different to yours, with circular dials and a fair few of them. I'm pretty sure there was only the 2 variants wasn't there?

Looks in very good condition much the same as my ex fire service one. I'd say you're more than welcome to come and have a look around it any time you're this way.....you might struggle to see though as there is so much crap in the back!! The offer is there though

Why some donut took the head off! I don't know if you've heard of a place called Jobbers Inc in Philadelphia America.....they have spares for the SRKR engine - a couple of months back they even had a complete running engine with really low mileage.....but they wanted TOP whack for it. But they had a list of parts they had for the SRKR. My gun tractor has its original steel body on it.....which someday i intend on using as a pattern to build a new one! Where did you find the truck?

Nice to see another one added to the UK fleet. More details would be good....does it run? Is it the original engine setup or has it been replaced with something a little more economic?!

Absolutely no link to this seller what so ever, but stumbled across this for sale on MilWeb earlier. http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/view_large.php?ad=80991&cat=4 Hopefully it will find a nice new home and owner!

Hello there. I have messaged you but not sure if it arrived in your inbox! Would like some more info about the Matador please? I'm only in Cambridge so not far from me! Did it still have original engine in it? Cheers

Looking good!

I don't suppose you've had a chance to speak to timmysteaman to make sure he hasn't scrapped it yet?
