Seems a few of the 'family' would like to see my latest restoration project, which is one reason I miss not flying as much as I like to at Kents Best,
My Company (Scarab Sweepers) found this Sweeper about 4 years ago, with the intention of restoring it in house, 2 years went by and it had only been particaly taken apart, then I was asked by the Senor management if I would do it, which I have, taken 15 months and about 600 hours, few pictures as it was found and just after I drove it back to Scarab.
thanks to Ironside pictures added cheers

I must admit Graham, when you said road sweeper, I thought you meant one of the huge lorries, similar in size to what the dustman come round in.....lol!!
