MJB1 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 those DAFs were destined to be good tipper wagons , gutsy little motors they are , shame the prime mover is a scania , but paul & tris will love it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 yep the guys that drive them reckon they are good yokes, both have 90,000 km plus up on them and he only has them exactly one year thats some roading!!! i like the scania but thats just going by looks really cos to be honest trucks arent my area of expertise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civilpek Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 your not going to believe this marcus but that truck was actually washed the evening before that pic was taken and she was spotless, the tippers were lined up in the yard together and i was ment to take a picture of them but another mission came up! just shows he wasnt idle, and il tell him ye said hi, hell prob want commission for using his picture though im guessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 ya shes sweet, should see her loaded up so!!! shes double drive as well Are you sure? Looks like a twinsteer as you can see the hubcover on the second axle?? 144L 460 aint the commonist of motors either, nhow old is she as it's a tidy bit of kit Alan. I thought I looked short in a CF but you look even shorter than I do mate!!! Do you want some tipper slippers? I have loads of left boots for some reason. Must have had a one legged Action Man once upon a time!! :D :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Thought it was, see the shine in the centre of the second wheel Alan same as the front wheel. The Dafs will be double drives though thats a dead cert. I am safe in the knowledge I'm not the only one victim to bullying then?!! (Yeah - thats you Marky, Brit and FB- AND YOU THOMAS!!!) ;D 98?? Tidy condition mate. Not bad at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
