I'm talking about this - the one, the only, big bad yellow v16 diesel truck/tractor [trucktor?] from series 1 of the Scrappy Races:




I know most of the vehicles built on scrapheap challenge end up being recycled into parts again but I do know this was kept. I also know it was put up for sale on ebay and various other websites in around 2004, but nothing of it since then. So, does anyone know what became of it?

I ask because, being an engineer at a west country uni, the phrase "proper job" is often used by some of us upon accomplishment of a massive bodge and it got me remembering what is possibly SC's maddest ever team hehe
