Bespoke Transport
Library
Bought as an ex-council library based on a 12T Iveco chassis, we stripped the interior, laid new floors, panelled the walls and ceiling, and built a full width and height tailgate. Windows were made and fitted along with all internal fixtures and fittings including 25sq ft of kitchen area and a wet room with w/c, basin and shower. Full 12v, 24v and 240v electrics were installed along with hot and cold running water. Heating was by a diesel fuelled blown air unit and ventilation by ceiling fans and roof lights. Living area designed to be folded away during travelling to allow transportation of either a race car or road car.
Externally twin powered bi-fold ramps and a winch made loading a Quad and 16' Dragster a fairly painless operation.
Lockable storage areas were built into the side skirts to utilise the underfloor storage space . And external access points for all electrics, hot and cold water, compressed air and gas provided. On completion the truck was shot with several coats of 2K paint.
This was used for 2 years to transport our race car to Avon Park, it has been sold to a gentleman with a view of travelling across Europe with his road car inside.
Lorry
A low mileage 21' box with roller shutter at rear. The floors were overlaid, walls battened, insulated and skinned, and a suspended ceiling with insulation over was fitted. Side door cut, trimmed and fitted along with windows to sides. Installed at the front are a w/c and basin and kitchen area. Midway a folding partition separates the sleeping area containing a full size double bed. Services comprise of hot and cold running water, gas, 12, 24 and 240v electrics. Heating is by a diesel fired blown air unit. External lockers provide storage for tools, fridge generator and awning sheets with the poles being carried in storage tubes across the headboard. The tail lift is strengthened and extended and lifts a 16' dragster with ease. Everything internally and to the rear of the side door folds back to the wall to enable the car to be loaded.
