1956 Scania Vabis L71
Basic information and history
Domestically sold classic, Scania Vabis L71 from 1956 with only three previous owners, two of them in the same family. The truck has mainly been used for transporting milk in Skaraborg County. The first two owners belonged to the same family and used the truck between 1956 and 1973. The car remained in the same family until 2011 when it was sold to a new owner. He began restoration, blasted and painted the chassis and renovated the brake system. Unfortunately, the renovation ended due to illness and current owner purchased the truck in 2017 and has now finished this amazing workhorse to exquisite condition!
