Oxford Diecast Corporation of London Scammell Scarab
Product Code: 76RAB002
Production Details:
After the end of the Second World War, Scammell Lorries
looked at the Mechanical Horse, which was basically unchanged from its 1934
design, realised that something more modern was called for and set about
re-designing the vehicle. Later Scammell offered diesel engines. These were
the Perkins 4-199 for 3-ton and P4 and P4203 for six ton. The low mounting
of the engine and other design changes made the Scarab more stable and its
rounded all steel cab was more comfortable for drivers. The Scarab lasted in
production until 1967. (Scale 1:76 / OO Gauge)
