Wow, I have a toy one from the 1970's, and up till now I always thought it was from the UFO series or something like that, as I got it about the same time as my Shado 2 truck!
There's a video from the Chieftan addressing this. Apparently, it did have a differential, but it just didn't work very well. A 6x6 truck with the wheels evenly spaced is very unusual, and they never came up with a winning, mechanical differential for the thing. One of the field expedient fixes was to drive over railroad ties to lift each pair of wheels clear of the ground so they could unwind.
Good god....you never put the winch housing drain plug in before entering the water, they would have locked you up for that in the Army .....lol Is that a diesel engine in there or the RR B81 Petrol Engine ????
Re the advert, there’s more to this than just being expelled for refusing to sell away all the rights to this heater but in the slim chance there isn’t then there’s no doubt in my mind that the university was in line to get a mahoosive cut of the profits that were sure to come as it was developed, I can definitely smell rotting fish here. 🧐🤑

Its more of a shame that you have abysmal music taste and cannot identify the awesomeness of this track. Now be off with you young man with Gaelic name, you have forgotten your Celtic heritage and for that you should be ashamed.
Did you get permission somehow to use that track? I remember the controversy from 2005 or so when an American whistlerblower published the music that the CIA was using at their torture sites to break suspected Al Qaeda operatives. The CIA was really protective of their copyright back then and i remember their lawyers coming down hard on local police departments using this track for crowd control. Anyway, ballsy choice for background noise.
I did get permission, the group are personal friends of ours. I put a little bit of the sound in for people who wanted to hear it, but in general, it was just screaming constantly and it was windy. So the audio quality while out on the water was really awful. Thanks for the view though, its some machine.

If you could have heard the experience in real life, it was horrendous. So very loud that you had to scream to be heard. Its not a petrol, but a diesel engine in this particular one.

@DonegalOverlanding and when I make a comment, I get to voice my opinion, which I did. Frankly, I couldn't care less whether you get paid or not. Peace.
I'm so jealous! I'm an Army brat and these were a big part of my childhood. I absolutely love how these Stollys look and sound.
Nice camp site stayed there a few years ago awesome stalwart loved the engine conversion
Love The Music and The Whole Production keep going This is Class
I used to love driving these when I was in the Army - replen tanks/432 etc - happy days (sadly ours never floated)
Better add a portable plastic cabin on the backside with living accommodation and daily becessities...water tank..stoves...loo...etc. Enjoy...😊😊😊😊
Great to see Joe and Trevor in their element!
Class truck always wanted one since I was a kid. Wonder what the mpg is like with the diesel conversion?
Loved it,spoilt only by the crap singing all the way through it,would have preferred to hear this rare beast
The music is fucking awesome. Its not our fault you have such shocking taste in music and cannot recognise the amazing talent that is Skerryvore.
@@DonegalOverlanding sorry but I just don't see what relevance it has to the stalwart,but hey,each to their own 👍
It is astounding ...
Technology thriving day by day
You lucky sods looks amazing though.
It was a pretty unusual and cool experience!
My all time dream machine ❤
Wow, I have a toy one from the 1970's, and up till now I always thought it was from the UFO series or something like that, as I got it about the same time as my Shado 2 truck!
Awesome 👍
The water leaking out of the front, is there a plug missing or something?
No idea!
Do I remember correctly, these vehicles didn’t have differentials

Amazing!
What engine is in this Stolly? Nice vid. Thanks for sharing.
Perkins V8 diesel conversion
🇧🇷 BRASIL, 18/12/2023. Todo terreno kkk muito bom.
Is it going to rain?
The difference between army and private ownership is availability of spares and recovery at reasonable rates!
The dream vehicle of every boy
Thought they'd be twice the size of a sookie cheap
I want one! And congratulations !
How fast on land are these and do you need hgv licence
Over engineered but fabulous fun. 30 years service with British Army. Drove and Swam these while in the RCT
Good god....you never put the winch housing drain plug in before entering the water, they would have locked you up for that in the Army .....lol
Is that a diesel engine in there or the RR B81 Petrol Engine ????
Its a diesel engine they installed.
Thanks corporal
Stalwart = 👍🏻🇬🇧
Rumour mpg 300 yards per gallon,unclear if proper british 4.5 liter,or Noddy's 3.6 liter ceptic one
I had to mute this to watch it, great video , just can’t concentrate with that row😬
This looks out of date but still up to date forever.
Now you know that music ain't that bad kinda soothing don't you think.
*_Nice._*
Engine sounds like M35 Deuce 6x6 military truck
the music spoils the video
We love the music.
Music was tacky and terrible but the vehicle is mega cool, still a thumbs up from me
Goood 👍👍👍👍
Me want so badly.
what a rig
Для мчс ?
Just for balance.....I love the music.
Shut the fin music
No, we will use any music we like, whenever we like. Its our video, not yours. Fell free to never ever return.

BEAUTIFUL
AFTER SPLASHING WITH SALTY SEA WATER RINSE WITH FRESH WATER.....
That is a fresh water loch. Or lough as they call it in Northern Ireland.
Shame about the music…. 😞
Its more of a shame that you have abysmal music taste and cannot identify the awesomeness of this track. Now be off with you young man with Gaelic name, you have forgotten your Celtic heritage and for that you should be ashamed.
@@DonegalOverlanding It’s not the Celtic music that was the problem (it’s a great track!), it was the masking of the straight eight roar!!

Dream truck diesel ❤❤❤❤
Music is meh,sound 📴 😊
Hope you don't use it on the road - those Michelins will wreck the transmission.
I think they’re being a bit ambitious. these things were only meant to cross rivers - not to go cruising with
Have you never heard of human endeavour? Where would we be without it! Living life in your comfort zone is a life wasted, get out and push the boundaries!
problem is it's impossible not to wash bearing grease and oil in to the water. Thats just irresponsible.
and yet, despite all your proclamations of doom, the world still spins and we had a great day.
You might have
we did, it was awesome, and that is ALL that matters. The rest, whatever, yawn yawn, we do not care even slightly.
Would be a great video if you removed the "jungle bunny " music ..
We love it.
Why music song ....we need real engine sound...so boring
Would of been nice vid without the awful music but thank you for showing a swimming stolly

Great apart from stupid music that drowned out the real experience.
If you could have heard the experience in real life, it was horrendous. So very loud that you had to scream to be heard. Its not a petrol, but a diesel engine in this particular one.
Another brilliant example in how to ruin a whole video despite having an awesome story to tell and show. The music is the worst I heard in a long time

Get rid of the auscultation music😢
No.
Stooped watching due to crap music….
It's not an airport, no need to announce your departure.
Loose the music
Lose the appalling grammar. Then get access to the vehicle and create your own video. How bow dah?
Terrible music
You're terrible.
