What would be the axle display of the FTF? 10 x 4? Is it powered by a 2-stroke GM? Mighty outfit!

Just trying to keep it as interesting as possible gents

Aye, 10x4 unit Froggy, although not being original, it did looked the part, last axle is a tag one, and it’s indeed powered by a screamin’ Detroit V8 Diesel!

Would the truck with the viaduct in the background be an Atkinson? Strange cab.

Hi Paul,
I would go with a Krupp cabbed Atkinson, 240 Gardner powered would explain the extended front? Cheer’s Pete

Interesting idea, Pete! However the Krupp Atkinson CLT came with a Rolls 220 so unless it had been re-engined and re-cabbed, it might be something else. Also, not sure that the cab is an extended Krupp: have a look at the pictures on the CLT thread, here’s the link:

And here’s the picture again with a CLT for comparison. Cheers, Robert

An interesting use of the old DAF cab.

I already have photos of this, although I can’t remember where on the net I found them - it’s a Dutch-owned Atkinson with a locally built cab.

The operator was Wassink of Den Haag, and the reg was VB-63-61

I had thought of that cab, but the bonnet was too different. Can’t say the result is a success in matter of esthetics.

Dear Mr Patrick, pv83, Whippersnapper, Whips, Young un or whatever alias you go by (and these are the polite ones) ,

this is the kind of Scania I like. Back then, when I was younger, a lot younger, they were my preferred wagon, especially the sound of the V8.
