Nice pictures Steve :wave: :thumbup: the 580C in the first two photos has a non-standard cab plus a few other modifications; I'm guessing it was an export model for Scandinavia?

By the colour, my first thought would be the Hymac to be ex-military.
I'll go with Terberg for the crane carrier, and if they put greedy boards on the TM they'd get more on. :dizzy:
If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

That crossed my mind with the Hymac however not the military in this country as the MOD weld additional lifting eyes onto the boom and dipper arms of their machines.

Is that a Scammell or AEC 6 wheel unit pulling the dump trailer?
