Was used carrying hot material as you can see by the discolor in the skip sides.
The after pics are after a session on the steam cleaner by the way
Time for another shotblast and paint.

This is what happens when you send a truck into the steel works for a couple of weeks to cover some repairs....

That would depend on several factors but the tipper body may be made out of a material like Hardox in which case the heat would have no effect.

Re: 771D Before and after.
If the truck is going into these applications on a permanant basis the body is lined with Hardox, in this case it was only in for a couple of weeks and wasnt suppose to be hauling hot material, they even denied it when it came back but the evidence speaks for itself!

Re: 771D Before and after.
Sounds like the case of " yeah we greased it regularly" when you tell them all the grease points are dry! Some transformation, did it get other work than a freshen up
