Hi Dean, The number plate looks like it is from Latvia. Lorries from Latvia, Lithuania,
and Estonia are seen quite often in the UK now. Cheers, Ray.

A couple for today, Buzzer

Another example, MoAZ Scraper.

Sure is an oddity ,Oily . Can’t really see the point of it mind ! There’s one thing for sure ! The Russians are world class at ugly !!!
By the by,if the driver had let the bucket stand doing nothing for that long,on the sites I worked at, he’d have gone up the road, day one. Cheers Coomsey

Yeah spot on Ray the fella was from Latvia and he had bought that F86 off the Swiss army. I think it was 35 years old and he
use to go all over Europe in it. :laughing: :laughing:

That F88 has had some cosmetic work done to it Oily. :wink:

Pretty sure its RHD even though its Portuguese.

Heres a nice F89.

Thanks to Lawrence Dunbar and DEANB for the pics :smiley: :smiley:
with regard to the “F86” Dean I thought the rad grille was out of place and belonging to an 88 or 89, I surmised it was LHD, I don’t doubt your better knowledge. Dave Fawcett is pretty well genned up on models/marques etc and went along with the picture caption. Did a bit of googling and found another one.

I have just googled it as well Oily, and i have never seen one like it before ? :unamused: I can only think it has a F86 engine in it but its an
F88/89 cab which has been modified. Strange looking motor so i will have to see if i can find out more ? :laughing: :wink:

Can only think it was specifically built for Portugal but i cant understand why ? They built a thinner one for the Swiss market due to
width laws.

The wiper position is the usual giveaway to tell whether a vehicle is right or left hand drive, however the transport world is notorious for throwing up the oddball which this model seems to be and there is usually a story behind them if it can be found! Franky.

One for the tipper boys with strong arm muscles, Buzzer
