If your a Facebooker then there’s a good opportunity you have seen the project becoming undertaken by all at Phillip Judge International. The above Scania R620 is being fully converted to flat bed wagon and drag for carrying straw bales, tractors or what ever else you can carry on a flat bed (that is quite a lot). The driver will be the one and only Will Pringle, yes he of other notable custom truck fame. As you can see the truck started life as a hydraulic loader and was purchased from well known Dutch truck dealer VSB Groep.
More than to Mr Pringle to inform us all we want to know
“VSB stripped and fitted the new facelift grill and it had been to Steves Location (truck customiser in Holland) for the fitment of the changeover valve and pipe work also side pipe. Then James Burrow did the fitting of streamline corners extra lighting headboard roof rack and ladders,also rear bumper! The physique was created by Euro Axles at Stoke on Trent. The chassis was extended by Northwest Commercials at Preston. The full pain2rk was carried out by Ian Bone & sons and of course the airbrush function was carried out by Matt the painter. All the electrics accomplished by Kev Larkin. After finished at Bones’ it is going Coles Customs for full interior rebuild and the fabrication of lockers, tank wraps and different other tiny tweaks.”
What a change from how she started life back in 2008, a distinct country and a distinct way of life by all accounts
“Yeah I know, it’s initially from Norway and I think it was a fridge motor. VSB had just completed placing the cable lift side skirts bulbar and almost everything on it when we went to look at it in Holland.”
The truck is nearing completion and does now look close to what the completed show prepared post will appear like. Knowing a little bit about Will in positive he’ll be undertaking all he can get all the little touches done to the truck that will make it a reduce above most of the rest. I appear forward to seeing it when it comes out if the Coles Customs workshop. I will do one more update as and when it seems and before it hits the road to claw back some of the price of making such an great functioning truck.
p.s. The 3 series sun visor is a perfect match to the High Line cab.
