Unfortunately this is the only picture i have. A year ago i was really surprised when i faced this truck in a factory. As i mentioned Transcontinentals were not that popular in Greece and very few sold here. This one as some workers told me , was bought brand new at late 70’s and it has very few km on the clock. Picture was taken a bit after it was totally restored in and out. The truck is in use by the factory for transport of products allover Greece.

I thought Ena flogged it to bury Ange…I hope He got it back again, I remember it getting flashed on the train one night it burned his cb/stereo out, he fixed it back up & did it again the next trip the numpty 
Proper good craic Steve always a good tale told true or not. It was one of the nicest Transcons on the road too, I last saw it in Glyfada with palm trees on had to shove a hosepipe up the side of the tilt to water em 
Oh yes Mr Dabas I was never a fan of his either, Brooksey rang Me up a while back asking did I know anyone who wanted a cheap Transcon, I think He thought I would want it for old times sake ffs, I did My time with Toad Hall & don’t wanna do it again I told Him. It was in Dabas but He cut it Brooksey told Me later,
Did Roi Moran get hold of You by the way? A bloke in Prestons doing an F89 up look up F89 Facebook page your knowledge may prove invaluable to em, as you have probably spent more time than any of em under one or steering one.
Wow fantastic photos.
Are these L315 and L334?
Both are real beauties!
I would be interested to where you sold them. Germany?
Or are you the owner?
It’s really amazing what you are able to find in greece, even today!
If you find some Büssings i would be very interested in pictures.
Two of them i found in 2008 during our truck-tour through the balkans and greece.
The BS16 was still in service!
Büssings are very hard to find today, even in greece.
Thanks a lot for your pictures!
