You blokes over there keep coming up with some amazing photos and Deano you have sneaked another one I have never seen before the S24 Scammell if they put a decent engine and gearbox in it not that the 350 ■■■■■■■ and the 15speed R>R arent good equipment but a K19 ■■■■■■■ as fitted in the Komatsu dozer set at 525hp with a 18speed R/R they would have a unit second to none.
Hers a few more of mine just for the record the KW had a K19 and an 18 speed fitted.
The last one is for Deanb its the cook coming to the rescue after we had spent the week at the annual local race and rodeo of Firzroy Crossing and the local plod reckoned I wasn’t in a fit state to drive so as you can see the cook is cooking.
LOL

Cheers Dig

Good afternoon all,

Friday afternoon , and about 250 miles from home.

Having just seen one of the ALE-built heavy-haul tractor powering along, it reminded me of the HHT specials.

Whatever happened to them? IIRC one went to Keedwells or Mike Lawrence in Somerset.

Were any kept by HHT and sold when the fleet was wound up?

Good question Ed! There was one in the GCS Johnson fleet as well, can’t remember which one it was though… don’t reckon any of those were preserved…

Hi Danne, Yes it is two trailers. Grain bins are very popular at the moment as farmers store the harvest on the farm and wait for the best selling price instead of carting the grain to the elevator straight away. Some trailers have hydraulic rams so they can stand the bins upright when they get on site; but I think these will need a crane.

Chris.

Some nice pics being posted. Patrick i like the ones with machinery pulling some of those loads.

Any more of this rare Volvo set up ■■?
