Twilight zone has been bought by one of Roys ex drivers, shipped back over here and is currently being restored to its former glory just as she was ![]()
Good to hear. Any pictures?





Craig Potter



Hi everyone,
Does anybody have any photo’s or information on how Roy Gill’s Scania 143 500 ‘twilight zone’ is coming along?
I hear it’s being brought back to the UK and being restored.
Recently seen this video on youtube youtube.com/watch?v=lVkD8Ow56XM
It’s an absolute shame this truck is in such tatters!……. What a difference from when Roy owned it.
I really can’t get my head around why anybody would let a truck go like this! ![]()
Regards to all, sutty. ![]()
