I can remember that truck, i think the o/d that ran it used to sub for barry proctor

I learned to bunny hop my way through an Eaton Twin Splitter in Stratos, when I was in the Army 
. The Stratos took over from the Scammell Crusaders 
which had to happen at some point. They were double drive, standard height cabs with double bunks, I cant remember the HP 
. They had the stereo cassettes in them, which was a bonus for a military vehicle . We used them on low loader work, moving plant equipment around the UK and Germany. I will try to dig out some photos of the old girls, but I’m sure someone on here will have some of the Army Stratos. It was great fun, I loved every minute driving the Seddon Atkinson Stratos
