Grumpy Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) After a period of rest in a Welsh field, a wee little Scammell Constructor some of you may know as Red Dragon has ventured out of Wales to the Cathedral City for a bit of TLC It’s always nice to have a Militant on hand when you’re loading on your own Loaded and on its way, just another 125 miles to go After all those years in a Welsh field it’s good to see the rear bogie pivots aren’t sized And it’s also nice to have another Militant to help him back into his new resting place Unfortunately due to other projects its looks like we wont be able to make a start on the restoration until next year, but at least he is safe now and should be back on the show circuit again, maybe for a couple of the later shows next year.

Hi Maurice, Yes definitely need some spares, from the picture the radiator and driver’s windscreen would be very useful. Where about is the Scammell, you can PM the details if the location is sensitive. Thanks Scott :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
