1992 Scania Series III 143M Sleeper

Generally considered to be one of the best European tractor units of its time; desirable for its practicality and its collectability

First registered in October 1992, this 6x2 tractor unit seems to be largely original. The 3-Series was introduced in 1987 by Scania and the monstrous 143M V8 powered unit was and is one of the most desirable.

Many years after production ceased, the 14.3-litre 143M is well remembered by drivers for their comfort and driveability. Having covered just over 806,000 kilometres, this one has been well used, but still has years of life left in it.

Presented here almost as a blank canvas with the twin impressive exhaust stacks, 12 geared box, handy sleeper compartment and a tag-axle, this is ready to become part of a collection and/or being smartened up to be shown at one of the many commercial shows across the country.

This truck deserves a thorough refurbishment and is bound to attract interest from the private collector and reminiscing plant/haulage driver alike.
