Ive been a fan of Scammells since I was a kid, there was a recovery business on the way
to my infants school, bright yellow with a strangely prehistoric look, loved em ever since.
When I heard that Thunder models were planning to release a version of their models in 1/72 scale
a plan formed in my mind based on this period picture.

As for the title, it comes from an English phrase ‘swanning about' meaning sort of wandering around in a casual
manner and was the term used to describe the Allied break out after the Normandy battles,

Excellent work indeed.

Totally different and well executed.

The photography is the icing on the cake.

Best wishes,

Lovely work Leon.

They are truly massive vehicles. Great to be around.
There are two in pristine/good condition parked in Dorchester.
Railway triangle industrial estate Dorchester.
If you are in the Dorchester area pop by and walk around them.
