Scammell4199 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Hi Simon, welcome to the nut house. Me, my dad and brother are currently restoring a Pioneer too, happy to help in any way we can. If you need them I have the workshop and drivers manuals in electronic format, happy to email or burn to CD and send. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invincible Mick Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Hi I'm Simon and the Mrs is EllieWell its taken us nearly 20 years but look what we have bought :-) So as you can see I will be looking for some help in the coming months:nut:[ATTACH=CONFIG]27833[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]27832[/ATTACH] Hi from another fully paid up member of the Scammell asylm (Pioneer Ward). Looks a bit rough at first glance but most of its there, which is the main thing I suppose. Love the scammell signs on each side. Whoever went to all that trouble must have loved it even in its working days. I am guessing, but by some of the features it looks close to mine which is chassis no 4260. Anything I can be of assistance with is an e-mail away. Look forward to more pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
