Sorry, taken from FB…
“Hit by an RCT 10 Tonner who was in silent 6th, coming down the Horn on Route 1, just outside Detmold. The name of the driver evades me, it was Taff some thing. The 10 Tonner is over the back in the tree’s. Mid 1982.”

And after spotting that old beauty (above), I thought I’d dig out a few of my old Crusader pics from the 80’sCouple of heavy hitters to begin;
UYL 814S
Looks like this is the sister truck
UYL 813S
my late father ran uyl814s on low lowder work for tarmac at corby northants ,i can still hear that detroit diesel v8 now ,proper motor HAPPY DAYS
Only three things wrong with the crusader in my oppinion, the lack of a tilt cab, a ■■■■■■■ super E 14 and just a little bit more on the cab comfort side, otherwise great.
Is this a Crusader?
Front panel certainly looks Crusader like Steve 
but the rest of the cab looks American, even though it’s right hand drive 
Trev.
Yeah front panel and wings are Crusader and the cab is a F88/89 that’s probably why it’s a right-hand drive,looks odd either way.Paul
It’s an Aussie,
I have seen these pics on an Aussie forum,I’m pretty sure it’s a Crusader with an Aussie built AEC cab.
I think the AEC cabs were made by a company called Hasting Deering,who were the AEC agents. It was re-cabbed after an accdent.
Another cracking picture of Terry Ainger’s Crusader:

While waiting to cross a roundabout yesterday, I heard a very distinctive engine noise. Looked around and low and behold there she was! A lovely example still being used. Anyone know anything about this one? Sounded very much like a Detroit to me.BRP 301S. Northants reg, but I think the company is from Royston Cambs area.
last registered Scammell Amazon (100 ton rated Crusader) now fully restored, I own sister vehicle which was converted to recovery from new so ran on Trade Plates, when legislation required it to be registered it aquired a Q plate flickr.com/photos/33865953@N05/3660072605/

This one normally pulled a low-loader. It was powered by a 290 ( I think ) Roller and was badged as an Amazon. I seem to remember reading that Amazon chassis were something to do with Thorneycroft. Cheers Haddy.

A nice 4x2:Photo removed as requested by David Stretton
Ownership of this picture has been claimed by CMG 116, so credit and thanks to him please.
I can’t remember where I found it, but as it was on the open Internet somewhere I (wrongly) assumed it was OK to copy - any pictures of my Scammells are posted with the understanding that anyone may enjoy them and (if they wish) copy and repost them elsewhere.
stevecook:
How about some pictures of Scammell Crusaders, here’s one to start:
The last time I saw JVM896V it was owned by Pete Elwood from Hyde in cheshire. It was painted red, and was on contract to RSM in Trafford park,on the containers.
Came across this on Friday…
