Just come across this:
The Scammell appears to “win” the trial, although the AEC and Foden do OK. The test looks a bit rubbish IMO- some of the lorries are only part-loaded on some of the tests.
Did some of the Constructors have a modified version of the LAD cab?

Probably made from whatever they had available at the time
Found some more pics of those big old Aussi contractors !
If you Google “Scammell Contractor 8x4”, it looks like there is one complete somewhere in Oz,parked in a yard. Dunno if it is still there. It would make a great restoration project if it is.
I would have copied the link to the page, but I’m on a smartphone, and I ain’t that smart.
