Stabliofarmer Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Fantastic photos as always Bill, and some Beauts in the way of trucks. Two questions though, Is this Volvo road legal as I didn't think 63 plates came out till September? Also is that a larger scale of livestock trailer on the left hand side of this picture?

b11jwd Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Great pics as usual. I am sure couple of these were at truckfest last weekend. I am sure the Scottish fuels one and the one with James Bond on the back were there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Joe. I'm not sure Joe. Doug used to drive the silver one bur maybe that its repainted. He run his business whilst driving and has been know to run up the back of someone in the past so maybe a repaired abd resprayed cab. I did see him there but didnt get a chance to speak to him but i'm sure I'll see im at crathes or mearns or Scone palace over the next few weeks so I'll find out.

Yes the larger scale float is one that skitter box Chas has had in the making for a long time...I'm not too sure about the scale of it though.

Mind you I have heard that in the past when on holiday he has had the rear wings removed, shotblasted and repainted and paid for by himself....just his hobby I suppose.

BC Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Funny you should say that James but young Doug McNicol is the driver of that unit and was up at Tarland since Charlie is a mate of his. I got old Doug's phone number from him since I need to see about getting my Farmall Cub road registered and his dad deals with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
