The business end is the same as a regular Scammell Explore, I have attached a picture of one minus the lockers.
Scammell did a lot of small series production vehicles, so its "dangerous" to say the cab determines the type. The same cab is also used on the 4x4 Mountaineer. Furthermore the constructors (in your pictures) do not have the walking beam rear suspension like the explore. image0-1.jpg sc00178af4_1.jpg 1318c96023cb6b0edc2e6037c9df0c0a.jpg 866.jpg img_1.jpg

Hello All,
Just some clarification - as the truck is a "Wrecker" the business end to me would be the lifting arrangement.. Kind Regards Lionel

Rear view. Not very detailed as I had no intention of climbing on it.

Now that we have established that he subject of this thread is an Explorer but built with the same cab as a Constructor, Does anyone know what engine was fitted ? Hopefully not the Meadows petrol engine that the British army ones had.

The 6 x 4s were Meadows Diesels. I assume these were the same?

Thanks for posting the photographs. You will have to get a drone so you can get an aerial view that eliminates the need for climbing on trucks. Kind Regards Lionel
