That's scrappers for you. If you gave them the Mona Lisa, they'd use the frame to fix a fence, and the painting to patch a hole in the roof of the chicken-shed.
A classic old AEC Matador. Dates from around the second world war. A collector would have bought that for parts or to restore. AEC bits are hard to come by.
Yeah, beyond stupid. This was a complete vehicle with engine, drivetrain and complete cab so it would have certainly been possible to restore it or use everything as spares.
That's scrap-dealers for you. If you gave them a priceless painting, they'd probably nail it to the roof to stop the rain coming in. Old AEC matadors are worth more for parts than for scrap, but to the grab-driver, it's just work.
nlo114 You are right, I part out older grain trucks and semis and I want to sell/use as much as I possibly can before it gets crunched, sad to see good stuff go to the shredder
Surprised that collector value wouldn't exceed scrap value on something like this. So many bigfoots out there and not enough retired military trucks rebuilt into mind blowing adventure RV's to find them. Look at the frame on that beast, good to go another 100 years if it had to.
look at the qulity of the truck... they can barely tear it apart... not those new crappy cars an trucks. this thing was build to last and somebody just decided to get easy cash in stead of taking time and effort to worth more...waste
That is a crying shame to that to a nice old truck like that but most likely they kept a few of them and did sell in a timely fashion or they didn't get what they were asking for price wise mostly likely due to the lack of knowledge on counting
NO KIDDING I am a military truck collector in the US, if a truck like that was running and in even close to drive able condition its a 10,000 USD$ truck every day!! You know guys this is bad BUT in the USA our Govt. instead of canceling a contract with BAE systems for MRAPS in Texas we had them continue to fulfill our contract then the US Govt. took possession of them and drove them 7 miles to a location that was somewhat away from prying eyes and scrapped them at that location. Oh did I say the US taxpayers paid 1 million USD per truck per truck!
It doesn't look like much was left of it and it hasn't run in years. No windows means it's been sitting in someone's field for years and the interior is likely a rat colony. Look at all the dirt (rust) that fell out. This looks like a case of perceived value far exceeding actual value or some collector would have got it already.
Video repeats at about 4:48 why did they think we wanted to watch the same part of the video twice over? Bad editing earns you a dislike for repeated footage.
"Oddly Satisfying To Watch" Yo avin a laff ar kid? That was a rare AEC Militant from the 1950's and looked in good nick. Respray and resto would have been worth a fair few grand to military vehicle collectors with their Massive Wads o' Cash. You guys nay too bright, aye happen, strong in arm, thick in head northern born, northern bred. What you destroyed: The AEC Militant, aka "Milly" was the 1952 replacement for the Matador workhorse and continued in various auxiliary models until the 1970s.
Shows how dim the scrappers were. Can’t even count the wheels let alone figure out they wrecked a museum piece. Sure, it needed a lot of work. But it only existed once and they deliberately destroyed it. Not the brightest boys driving the wrecking kit.
Thanks For Watching We Will Be Posting New Videos Every Day

Which is why you wouldn't piddle on them if they were on fire.
That was stupid! Those are the kind of trucks you rebuild, not recycle.
if you rebuild all the old vehicles there would be no space to put them

It's easy to obtain AEC parts, it's just most are for the Routemaster.
its a 1950s/60s AEC Militant,...not worth even a grand in that condition...on the road minty they about £4,000
That truck still had a lot of use left if it had landed in the right hands.

I totally agree
I know military vehicle collectors that would have paid good money for that, miserable!
هذة الشاحنات كتب لها شهادة وفاة 😢 7:07
What a waste of a beautiful old truck.
Kevin Cousins Buy and safe one
Robert Schumann I did, a 1958 GMC deuce. 302 straight six with an Alison trans.
You would’ve made so much more money selling it to a collector
so many parts that we can reuse

Cool Truck Shame It Was Destroyef
Correction : " Crushing & Shredding Cars With Machines That Destroy Things Oddly Painful To Watch "
such a shame,. truck made it thisfar in one piece
only to be ripped apart ......... smh
it's a 6x6 army truck not a 8x8 ... what happened to the axles ?
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That’s one tough truck
CANNOT BELIEVE THEY TRASHED THAT .......🤬🤬🤬🤬
Its a 6x6, not an 8x8.
Sir Never Wrong well spotted lol
Except it is a 6x4 not 6x6
That is a crying shame to that to a nice old truck like that but most likely they kept a few of them and did sell in a timely fashion or they didn't get what they were asking for price wise mostly likely due to the lack of knowledge on counting
Hey dude- Where's my truck?
That was one cool old truck.
That was odd. Even when scrap prices were high that should have made more as a vehicle. It certainly would have fetched more if parted out.
0:20 - sounds like Jawas talking - those interstellar junk dealers get everywhere!
The fast forward makes them sound like the sand people from Star Wars lol
Basic training:
Now private Smith,
reassemble it.
Yes Sargent Major, tight away.
Should be doing this to the modern crap, not this classic, animals!!!
It funny for cleaner nature to world .
That's the sickest thing I've ever seen
If u watchethis backwards.,,this guy is good!!!!
Those trucks put up quite the fight coming apart.
what a waste... should have been donated to a museum.
Betcha Top Gear mechanic could get it going again.
Worked on many of those in the 70s. I pass my class2 driver’s licence in one .
Every one wants to save every old car or truck but no one wants to buy them when there for sale.
Sacrilege !
Tires had lots of tread. Why didn't they remove those?
military truck: wait?! stop! What are you doing?! No! stop! god No! NOOO!! OH GOD!! NOOO!!
the claw excavator: AHHHH!!! AHHHHAHA!!!
it's meant to be a project G-1 reference.
That’s some scary images
Guy running that crain like it's own arm. Must had been working there a long time
One tough old 6X6
Loads of classic cars went the same way during the scrappage scheme.
Very good vídeo Brasil ok
Lots off new kit on dsit

Not sure why the video repeated itself halfway thru the total length, but okay. Nice deconstruction job either way.
Да грузовик жаль токих уже не делают.
Filmed by minions?
Such a shame! Looks like it still had the original engine as well 😞
The playback speed of the video ruined it.
Did anyone else keep chanting, "Engine! Engine!" in their mind?
máquina incrível
Why is the same video played twice?
Would yall sell some car tags/license plates
What a pity so sad to see that Aec militant gone forever
Is it just me or is this mildly disturbing? Kind of like an alligator in the swamp ripping it's prey apart.
If that is done, you can then can still drive the truck? ;-)
just apply some Gorilla glue and it will stick together like nothing happened
Yeah everyone talks about saving these things and using parts but no one wants to spend the money.
how do yoy know!? i know alot who want that truck
had give more than scrap price for it
This is Thorny having cadiluc petrol 6 cly engine it was used to make fire tender also
This thing makes me sad☹️
It's a 6x6 😄
They threw a lot of money into the shredder, why would you do that ?
😢 poor old truck all it needed was a new engine!😢💔
Its an AEC Mk1 Militant from the British army !
Thats ashame Crushing them army vehicles.
Sick people.sad.
Classic AEC ! What fools they are.
What a dusty, rusty old truck. Rip it apart for scrap. Good work guys!
Man you're ignorant. Unfortunate people with your brains are among us.
now put it back together.
tonto sabie Helene sjöholm
Reg Speed would be nice!!!!!
Why so fast?
It doesn't look like much was left of it and it hasn't run in years. No windows means it's been sitting in someone's field for years and the interior is likely a rat colony. Look at all the dirt (rust) that fell out. This looks like a case of perceived value far exceeding actual value or some collector would have got it already.
😅
А там дальше стоит Toyota Surf Hilux интересно его тоже под разбор (((((((((
I’d rather let it rot than destroy it that way!!
O kamyonu nasil kaldiramadi o alet
6x6

Very sad, I used to drive one

Oddly Satisfying To Watch,............... how about noh..... :(
So unfortunate for that 6×6

its not satisfying to watch it repeatedly
peccato era un CAMION d'epoca una rimessa apposto riverniciato di rosso che è un colore moderno ma Nello stesso tempo antico vabeee
It’s a AEC 6x6 ten ton . Not an 8x8 . Six wheels gives you a clue !!!🙄
Shows how dim the scrappers were. Can’t even count the wheels let alone figure out they wrecked a museum piece. Sure, it needed a lot of work. But it only existed once and they deliberately destroyed it. Not the brightest boys driving the wrecking kit.
like watching an angry animal rip something to shreds
Puny grab finds it hard destroy that aec should of been kept real hero's drove that I'd say
weston super mare?
Dá pra perceber que as máquinas estão revoltadas kkkk elas estão com uma raiva danada kkkkk
Ok
Giggling the whole time! Yes!
No accounting for mental sickness.
What a fucking shame. Thumbs down
Yeah but how good is he at the claw game at the local Walmart
Robert Smith p
Why repeat the whole thing?

Someone can't count
