Can anyone help

...Timo did say his Grandfather ordered them from England.....private import possibly...??

...also in the pic Timo provided, the sleeper addition is not the same as the the ones in the pics Mrsmackpaul posted.....


....late edit .. "Leyland Australia" is on the serial plate, so must've been a normal import I'd say.

The axle is albion

G'Day Gents,

This is most certainly not factory sleeper. I can ask the guys on the Scammell Trucks FB group... Timo?

Cheers,

T

...looking a bit harder at the pressings in the back, she may be a modified factory sleeper with the lower ten inches or so having been removed right around...???

yeah I think you are getting closer to it now no doubt trimmed for more air flow or something before delivery

I believe that the sleeper was custom made.( i could be wrong) but crusaders genually didnt have sleepers.

Hi Timo
You are probably correct, I have not seen a genuine aussle sleeper Crusader.

Here is some info on Crusaders from "Heritage Commercials"

...I'm more inclined than ever to think that there may've been an "Antipodean" Crusader that had a bunk especially built for Australia.... possibly modified with less glass and a more open back of cab for heat egress ???

Timo, There was 3 attachment but only 2 had anything in them
