i know this isn't really the place to be selling this but thought seeing as there's a wide variety of people using the forum somebody might be interested in it or know somebody who will be .
i don't know a great deal about it as my step dad who owns it lost a lot of his memory in a nasty crash but my mum tells me its a 6x4 8 liter 12 ton scammell pioneer
it has a mobile crane and a fully working winch .
it starts first time every time and has just had 2 new 12volt batteries

reason for selling it ..step dad is 72 and cant get in or out of it and when he is in it he hasn't got the strength to turn the steering wheel lol





£7000 ono

cheers
mogs

well good!

Wow!!! Oh i so wish.......

I so badly want to take that to college

thats not the sort of thing youd want to drive into.

imagine trying to clamp it

(or filling it up with fuel )

I want that so much

It'd certainly do for towing 7s to trackdays

.... if only I had the space....

very good off road - have what is called a travelling rear axle - in action here.
viddy

note that the top speed on road will not be more than 50 mph and some had no front brakes!!


or is it walking beam axles - here is one that is no worky

or fit tracks

cheers benzine i'll have a look .

step dad used to own this

fire engine
and decided to sell it but it was parked in the back of the shed and the brakes had seized on so i backed the scammell up and towed it out on tickover. it sure is a beast .
they used to drive the scammell to shows and stuff and with a top speed of 25mph it used to take for ever just to get out of the town ... not sure on the mpg but im glad i didnt pay for the fuel

This has got to be one thread that "you know who" won't post......




fit a bike engine

Excellent pics


I used to drive the Explorer the slightly newer model to the Poineer when I was in the TA years ago.

We once drove seven of our trucks into a rural filling station for petrol, yes they were petrol.

Ours had twin 120 gallon tanks, the filling station closed early that day , they ran out of petrol ..

good luck with the sale, a bit of classic off roader.

We have one over the pit

Along with one of these

I'm afraid I don't fancy the truck much - but what about putting the 8 litre engine in a kit ???

looks like the most comfortable off road vehicle ever.

My old defender 90 would go anywhere you pointed it, but it was quite uncomfortable.

I would love a scammell, but what i would do with it i donot know. Short of the £7k too.Dam!!

I quite like this too.
