Now I am looking to buy a scania 143 to restore for a fairly average price, Ive tried donedeal.ie ebay etc but cant seem to find what am looking for.
Basically I am after a 4x2 streamline/topline or a 6x2 short door topline I dont mind if its out of test. I all it needs is to be running and the cab to be half decent (meaning not that rotten that its gonna need a new cab).
I hope someone can point me in the right direction of one
if I get one this is how Iam going to restore it (or similar hence 4x2)
so, basically, cutting through the crap, you are wanting a Scania 143 of any variant, to buy and restore
I have one that has been parked up since i tested it last september doing nothing. Buyer would have to collect though i cant deliver.

Ummmmm I wonder where we would have to collect it from Karl?
Mick Moody has a fully restored 143 - 500 streamline up for sale- although I suspect the asking price will make your eyes water

can you give directions to where you parked it? Keys are in the battery box?

thought you was goin to get that ?
Its going to be a night out job, i have myself forgotten where i put it, and it is on the to do list, it had just gone through test before it shipped out…
About 4 weeks ago i saw a white 143, 450 i think, pulling a load into tesco, Harford Bridges Norfolk, and thought to myself what a tidy truck, not that it will help you in your quest, but just thought i would mention it.
Cornish haulier Neil Hart has one parked in his yard that could do with a bit of tidying. I believe it belongs to Clive James, one of his drivers. Worth a call perhaps as times are hard down here.

Ian at North West Commercials Preston Lancs has a 143 for sale.
