Hi ash my old Scania 143

Morning ainacs,

I passed that last week on the M27. Farwells of Sway have got a very similar one to yours pulling a low loader. Got a great rumble to it.

Hi Aniacs, the Red 143 behind yours did you buy it from John Stacey by any chance?

Hi Evo

I bought that Red 143 from a dealer in Melksham who had bought it I believe from a main dealer (not sure which) but it was avery good truck 6X2 tag on air
we put the stacks on it and it pulled like a train. Ironically I have just sold it last week to a Tractor Pulling fan from near Salisbury to tow his V8 scania powered tractor.

Yes I believe it was ex Staceys of Tadley well they always flashed me on the road!!!

Regards Pat

I thought it was Pat as I recognised the white stripes that they have on all their trucks, I live in Tadley so used to see it daily.

There Currently running 2 4 series on their low loaders

Cheers

Evvo
