If your a Facebooker then there’s a good likelihood you’ve observed the project getting undertaken by all at Phillip Judge International. The above Scania R620 is being totally 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 bought from effectively recognized Dutch truck dealer VSB Groep.
Over to Mr Pringle to inform us all we require to know
“VSB stripped and fitted the new facelift grill and it had been to Steves Place (truck customiser in Holland) for the fitment of the changeover valve and pipe operate also side pipe. Then James Burrow did the fitting of streamline corners additional 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 completed by Ian Bone & sons and of course the airbrush function was carried out by Matt the painter. All the electrics done by Kev Larkin. As soon as completed at Bones’ it is going Coles Customs for complete interior rebuild and the fabrication of lockers, tank wraps and numerous other tiny tweaks.”
What a alter from how she began life back in 2008, a diverse country and a different way of life by all accounts
“Yeah I know, it is originally from Norway and I believe 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 appear at it in Holland.”
The truck is nearing completion and does now appear close to what the completed show prepared post will appear like. Understanding a small bit about Will in confident he’ll be performing all he can get all the tiny touches completed to the truck that will make it a cut above most of the rest. I look 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 just before it hits the road to claw back some of the expense of producing such an great operating truck.
p.s. The 3 series sun visor is a ideal match to the Higher Line cab.
