Scott was built in Nova Scotia by the Irving group. Marmons came from Texas and were reputed to be a high quality hand built truck. The blue and white one right at the end with the International looking cab is a Diamond-T
I've heard of Marmon, though I've never seen one (till now of course) but I've never heard of Scot. Perhaps that's where "Great Scot!" Comes from .😊 Cool collection!
One of my favourite memories as a kid was going with my dad when I was 11 or 12 as he and his brother had to haul fuel in repeat runs in a pair of Scott trucks from the Irving Refinery to the dock on Water St. in the south end of Saint John where the Irving Miami (they told me it was the largest ocean-going tugboat in the world) was tied up. I remember my dad timing the shifting of the truck with the slosh of the fuel in the tanker as we climbed and then crawled up out of the Refinery over the Little River bridge toward Loch Lomond Rd. I remember going aboard the tub to snoop around, and I went into the engine room, where I heard the loudest racket I have ever heard. Regarding the Miami: At 140 feet long x 38' wide a depth of 21'-3" and draft of 18' and 880 grt it was certainly capable of just about any seagoing assignment. Its twin 20 cylinder GM engines developed 7200 bhp for a bollard pull of 100 tons and an advertised speed of 15 knots.
That first one almost looks like a Dodge Bighorn.. last one is a Brockway, nice heavy duty trucks. Only so many designs out there. All nice trucks! Thank you Skadill
I worked at Abco plastics in Nova Scotia, they made the hoods for Scot trucks, i was there at the end and only helped make a couple replacements, we had about 4 different molds. Scot trucks were built by the Irving company in New Brunswick.
SCOT trucks were built in Debert Nova Scotia, parent company was Irving out of New Brunswick but the trucks were built in NS. I live not far from the old.plant site my father and his brothers worked there and I recently bought an old SCOT of my own. Still a few pieces made by Abco at the old spot may be one you had your hands on.
SCOT used the Ford Louisville series cabs, green midland truck at 27sec, and the Kenworth K100 cabs. You can see a SCOT with a KW cab by the angle windows, orange dumptruck at 36 seconds.
Scots were built down thr road from where I grew up, great trucks built strong, I remember one that was in with Conrad's Truckin, bunk truck stacks in the back, was unique at the time
Marmon where frank steins left overs from Kenworth/Peterbilt/International......Kenworth cab, Peterbilt doors and International hoods, old school Kenworth hoods back in the days.....
I've heard and seen Marmon trucks before. Never heard of Scott trucks. They kind of look like a combination of Westeen Star, freightliner Diamond Reo and Brockway.
@@skadill REALLY! Sort of Dodge like and here a little and there a little. Sure looked from here ;ike all the steering was on the left and I know I'm goofy.
The contracts with the Canadian government as well with a bid on them and the other manufacturers as well can always come in handy when they get sold in state and public auctions
Crazy to see Scot… looked like they used Ford cabs fer a few… dunno what the advantage was of owning one… but clear to me why there are only a few… def not a style ride

Can’t say we know of Scot trucks, however pretty sure Marion been around back in the seventies thanks skadill !
RZD Marmon trucks were marketed here in Australia in the mid nineties. About a dozen were sold.

Well, as far as the Scots, if you ever saw one you'd sure remember it. Thanks, Pal and God Bless!

2:24 Check out the sand nozzles on the rear wheels, just like a locomotive!
Many have an L Series ford cab.
the scot trucks was built in debert nova scotia canada

The orange Scott at the start is probably an ex City of Vancouver truck. They had several dumps.
it saw its end life as a log yard truck at the pioneer log sort

They were heavier and more solid than the average tractor. But more expensive. I love them
5:14 that is a Diamond Reo
Marmon herrington had a few names over the years in the 1970s and 1980s in the Canadian area under licenses for making them
RHD* Right hand drive
The a one with the butterfly hood and protruding rad looks better , just cabs are hideous
