This Volvo truck is slowly turning to rust unless it's waiting for a rebuild.

Dennison, the trailer manufacturer, used to build trucks in Ireland, they were well-thought of for being very well assembled & strongly-built

I always understood them to be fitted with a petrol engine, unless re-motored?

@Jameshow
The same guy owns both premises, so it's likely that it's the same vehicle

@Jameshow
I was talking to a patient yesterday, & noticed his address, he told me he lived near/worked on a farm
I named a couple in that area
It seems he works on the farm/riding stables where the 'GGs' are
I mentioned them, & he told me they might be for sale...............

Interesting...

Any idea if condition?

Want a working restoration tbh.
Not mint but not rusty / missing any parts.

I'm wondering if I'd miss my camper van too much if I replaced it with an estate car 530d etc and a fire engine!
