Another bloody Volvo (6X6) driver!!

[Nick S]

Thought I would own up to buying Warren's (one2many) Volvo C304 tgb1314 6X6 that was in the markets section recently. The long term plan is to convert it to a diesel and to change the ambulance back into a camper. I've bought a Mercedes OM606 turbo diesel from the UK and a set of 5.99:1 CW&P. Bit of a steep learning curve for me so will be picking Warren's and others brains as the project evolves. I'll post some pictures as things change. Attached is a photo of the truck with Warren's Simex's on it
Cheers

Looking at that body, it'll make a good sized camper! Nice machine!!

Thanks Simon, I'll be watching your build with interest as I've been tossing up how to do the back

Ah, was wondering who had bought that, I was very interested myself but the timing was wrong. Look forward to seeing how you go with the build - that will make a fantastic camper. :)

Its going to be a long project but should be fun. Just getting used to multiplying by six for tires and three for diffs!

Got the C304 fully registered in Vic today, surprisingly straightforward and no dramas. Time to try out some 6 wheel driving!!

Will do, perhaps a trip to Wombat?

Sounds good - I'd love to see it in action. :)
