The offer made on it was only £1,500 so I probably guess that nobody's bought it yet! PW :sweat: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyFowler Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 You could put Horatia on the trailer and use the combination as a mobile home Pat ! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swill1952xs Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 That is f'kin gorgeous innit. Oh to have money. Lovely combination Perkins Eagle, 9 speed Fuller box. We have an ERF at work that I would love to own, much along the same lines as this. Very tidy inside and out, Eagle TX340, 9 speed Fuller box. I have told my bosses that I would like to buy it, but no doubt they will sell it elsewhere when the time comes. Would look great with a low loader on the back.

Richard Farrant Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 We had early Eagles at the metropolitan water board.cough splutter hang on till the smoke clears.I thought Perkins improved it. My thoughts exactly, John. We looked after Fodens and Scammells with 290 and 305 engines, awful smokers. When Perkins took over, they re-engineered the Eagle and made major improvements, the Perkins 350 Eagle in DROPS and S26 was a far better engine. Lets face it, Perkins had far more experience in building diesels than RR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
