Garbage Truck Conversion

you should save up and get to morocco in the winter.loads of trucks like those all over the place. its amazing how far you can push them mecanically,even two wheel drive trucks.been on the paris dakar route its the speed they travel thats the most amazing thing to whatch. some of the trucks are faster than the bikes. 600bhp 6x6 scania stripped for racing takes alot of beating.they manage 500ml in 10-11hours in the desert it mind blowing.took us 3 days to do the same stretch going very slow.shame its not happening now made january in maroc something special.

hi ,i wish i could put them on here .i havestruggled to try n get an avatar .i,m useless on computers . giveme a truck or camper to build no probs . i did get afriend to put someon my profile on ukcampsite forum but i cant do it myself.not going this year only staying in spain n portugal normlly we do down to dakla and back through the atlas mountains. i,m part of a group of friends that are abit loopy we only drive where others say we shouldnt. dont be put off there are loads down there. most know me as i drive a mini artic and where it goes is quite impressive. can be costly ,bent axle on trailer earlier this year being dragged backwards out of a river. managed to chain it to a tree and drive backwards n got it straight enough to come home. new axles n springs now so i must not drive silly for a while ha ha .get a van and do it you only live once. its not a rehearsal.cheers alan.
 
No they aren't bin wagons at least I can't see 'DENNIS' emblazoned across the radiator grill :)

On E-bay not long back there was an
ex-military radio box that would fit right on the back of one,
convert into much the same as the picture quite easily.

Pretty unlikely to get yourself in much trouble off-road as well
