Hi Paul, yes the TD20 has had a good job done on it, the truck is indeed of Russian origin it's got a bit V8 diesel in it, I'm not exactly sure how you pronounce the makers name, my Russian leaves a lot to be desired Will post a close shot of the nameplate later.

That ERF Wrecker must have been the cat's meow in it's day, and that little JCB looks like a whole heap of fun. Can you imagine what H&S would have to say about the Gunsmith?
If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

Unfortunately H&S have far too much to say Rob and have 'killed off' lots of enthusiasm due to the 'must be wrapped in cotton wool' attitude; sadly this takes away from our society and does not add any value to it, yes be safe by all means but don't kill things off by going OTT.
On a separate note here are two more pics of the Russian monster truck; I can only assume that this vehicle was originally used to transport tanks and the like?

I think that would be a KRAZ from Ukraine.
Is that a bonneted Maggie next to the ERF?

Yes Paul when I very first set my eyes on it I automatically thought that it was a 'Jimmy' but no its a four stroke V8 diesel; just the way the rocker covers are held in place make it look like a Detroit.
