I can't believe that five people managed to find a link between Pegasso and the Modec. I was convinced that one was almost impossible to do within 6 degrees, let alone in 2!
Hopefully this one will prove to be a little more difficult - but with you lot I very much doubt it.
How many degrees of separation are there between the Scammell Crusader and the Hanomag? Good luck!
By the way, please feel free to suggest some 'Degrees of Separation' trucks of your own. But I'd appreciate it if you could send some suitable pics along please.
Well, I turn my back for the holidays and BLB gets full of Hemmings degree-separation challenges! That's what I get for being away! Well, I'll use one of my old favorite tools from Hemmings -- PSA Peugeot Citroen.
According to Wikipedia:
Scammell licensed the "Mechanical Horse" design to Chenard-Walcker FAR in 1937 as the 'Pony Mécanique'. This continued in production, in various versions, until 1970. The Pony Mécanique used a Citroen Traction Avant engine.
Citroen became part of PSA Peugeot-Citroen, which took over Chrysler Europe (for $1.00 US) in 1970.
Chrysler and Daimler-Benz had an unhappy marriage for a few years here, recently.
Daimler-Benz took over the truck division of Hanomag-Henschel in 1969
1) Scammell belonged to BLMC
2) Austin also belonged to BLMC
3) Early Hanomag Henschel F25 Transporters used Austin petrol engines.
'Hanomag became Hanomag Henschel in 1969
Henschel built steam waggons using Abner Doble technology in the 30s
Sentinel also built a Doble waggon in 1936
The Sentinel works were acquired by Rolls Royce and used to build the Eagle diesel
The standard engine for the 4x2 Crusader was the Rolls Eagle
