I wonder if the front wheels stay on the ground when tipping a heavy load lol.
I half expected to see that car on despatches last night it was all about illegal rubbish tipping (another one of my pet hates )
they went to an illegal tip run by a skip lorry guy that believe it or not was in Finch hamstead in Berkshire (the same location as this car )
anyway I thought skodas were always thought of as mobile skips !!!

That is jsut something else! LOL!

I've seen that username before on the bay bidding on 300's if I'm not mistaken, so I think they have a proper interest in them. I think that would require some uprated suspension parts to be of any use carrying loads, but a good laugh none the less!

At least the rear leaf suspension would have some sort of load bearing ability, not brilliant, but it'd be a good laugh. That bucket/tipper body looks to be custom built, I'd say it's pretty hefty! IMO it's too high at the height it is, thus making it top heavy, unavoidable really, due to the layout etc. I wonder if it was every declared as a custom build and is roadworthy? It would probably have needed an engineers report due to the major surgery, removing the original body strength and changing the seating and use etc. I can see some bracing that has been added behind the cab. Interesting anyway!
