Wish I had a real one of these to play with! My Thunder 1/35 scale Pioneer SV/2S has just landed, cant wait to put her together... TFS, GB :) (Thanks For Sharing, Graeme Brumfitt. A lot of people ask what it means) UK/England :)
Fantastic articulation on that 2-spring rear suspension and the axle attachment must be very well designed to allow so much roll at the same time. Does the flag proud. Excellent UK engineering.
My grandad was in REME TA and he was out in Cyprus in 1963 they had about five, six or seven scammells all explorers and my grandad drove one and towed a trailer on back they also drove a Second World War Pioneer and it broke down it was dilapidated and they couldn’t repair it and Captain told them to leave it on a mountain a they did.
They're an absolute beast and very cool to look at!
Did my apprenticeship in 1970 to 75, and we had one of these as our heavy recovery vehicle, great bit of kit

nice video of two lovely scammel trucks and i own oxford diecast one And i love to own one 😊😊
My great grandad drove one in El Alamein Egypt in ww2.
Definitely more flexible than a deuce and a half.
Those Scammells are beautifully engineered truck/tractors, a bit big for Sydney streets.
I'm pretty sure other drivers would get out of your way , if they saw you coming towards them in one of these.
