Thornycroft Antar (6x4) ( Elliot Ltd )

What is your favourite truck of all time?


Classic Thornycroft Antar (6x4) ( Elliot Ltd )


Thornycroft built over 1000 Antars, although few ever entered the UK heavy haulage scene, so the Elliot of York examples are something of a rarity. Originally conceived as a tank transporter the ex-military Antar Mk3 model used the 330 bhp Rolls-Royce straight-eight engine. Fitted with a six-speed overdrive gearbox, the Mk 3 Antar was capable of a sedate 30mph, its specification also including very good breaks.
