it would seem from the perspective shown that that one either enters the cab from the opposite side door or climbs over the brake ? seems ackward . I guess there's a reason why they mounted the throttle so high ? as in to avoid mud and debis if mounted on the cab floor ? or ?

Many years ago we had an Austin FG and where it was garaged meant climbing in from the passenger side , over/round the engine cover and into the drivers seat....the number of times I tried to get in the seat to find two foot odd of gearlever gone up the leg of my boilersuit ! Tends to bring you to a rapid standstill !

Looks a bit light on levers for a Scammell? then again Crocs Explorer looks more like a railway junction box, off the top of my head it has a lever for the following:-

 

hand throttle

hand held hill start brake

ratchet handbrake

Gear lever

6x4x6 selector

Main winch gear

Rear Jib winch

air brake lever

Engine kill (Its a diesel)

 

and thats before you get onto switches dials and lights etc.......:shocked:
