Think stripes round the front would look better as be more in keeping with the early 90’s and it’s not a tall cab like the 164.

[@jerryandywhite4623]

I like to see you and trucker tim and Martin Hall and Shaun at the same truck show

[@michaelyoung8504]

I never realised the first two numbers were engine size and the third the model series 👍 everyday is a school day

[@joshuamcginty6944]

Good to see you back nipper do it like the 164

[@aaronoliver81]

Glad to see you back nipper 👍

[@emoh8765TinsleyTmd_YardModel]

Great to see you back nipper hope the leg is fine now paint it like the 164 it’s the best colour scheme Cheers Dave

[@terrys1595]

Yes the QR code does scan 👍 Glad you're back to full health 👍

[@Rayone88]

Am loving this...this duo are a masterclass

[@LazurusEnterprises]

Hi Nipper. Is good to see you up & about after broken leg incident & Tim & yourself having a chat / catch up. New year & all that, work plans, shows, Resto’s etc. I tried & I know Someone else did say the QR code works. Keep up the good work. Nice collection of trucks. Safe journey to Scotland. Daniel.

[@itzukgamer9919]

Be awesome too actually meet you and talk about trucks . I'm a big trucker tim fan and also a fan of you. I follow all of the content done by both of you . Awesome trucks you have too .

[@ciderant]

Think a retro paint job,as it will be more authentic to the finish. Glad you are back on your socials again👍

[@T.K.9]

I can understand Nipper doing Nipper stuff in his own channel. But man I do miss the Tim x Nipper specially that episode when they went on a Convoy to Ciney. Good times.

[@w388y1]

Love the way Tim is so quiet and subdued on your channel but totally different when you are on his obviously doesn’t want your channel to get bigger than his he is mugging you off and only using you for his own content

[@robertgreen38]

Great to see you back , 1 black stripe would be best !!!

[@DTDAILIES]

Mad how different Tim is when he’s not being ‘trucker Tim’, he’s much more him self than his character when not in his channel

[@kellychick7647]

Good to see you back nipper 👍

[@anthonybowles6035]

Loving the first video of 2024, I can't wait to see what's next.

[@netmatterslockstock9951]

Good to see you back with great content

[@katiemace8864]

Great to see you back nipper look forward to more content

[@gimble8638]

Good to see you back!! Yeah i think id go for doing it like in the picture, black grill looks great on your 164 (and your old r series) but i think on this one to do it the other way :)

[@iainstewart1715]

Nice video Nipper. White grill, possibly with black on the recessed strips. More period look. Think all black grill will look wrong. You could always do a Trucker Tim, and keep repainting it until you're happy😅

[@kennymorrison8639]

Leave it all red .looks classier.

[@scottmcclenaghan9982]

Good to see the videos back. Would probably go red with black grill details! Who had it before with the red and cream? Looks a bit like A.Campbell

[@peterireland2122]

A friend of mine used to drive a Manton Scanny great looking motor. I'd be tempted to paint the 113 just a nice red all over. That dexta is a beaut, bit shiney but very nice indeed.

[@p.l.9226]

Nipper ❤ your handy work. Just thought for your conundrum of the paint style of the grill. Get yourself some black vinyl before you actually painted and wrap the grill black and take a look at it 30 bucks worth the final. It’s a lot cheaper than painting and disliking it, and having to redo it. Cheers from 🇨🇦

[@nippertherestoman]

Good idea mate I may just try that ;) 👍

[@garrygrant2827]

Hi nipper congratulations on the new truck i was thinking about the way you do new paint job and i ended up like you said decision s decision s One thing when its done it will look awesome stunning as you have beautiful paint job on your 164and your service van. Really nice to see you with trucker Tim. Yes i agree with you he has a monumental job on his 4 series chassis plus his crazy v8 v fh wishing you all the best with your new 113

[@patoverend7395]

Great video as always nipper

[@kieranleighton872]

Devon truck show is epic! Mike puts on an amazing show!

[@robinfuller747]

[@robertduffin455]

[@RobertScaife]

I rode with my dad when I was a kid in an ERF like the one you have pulling a single deck cattle trailer......powered by a 250 cummins......

[@AdmPugh]

Great to see Tim o n your channel nipper. Will you be going to either Malvern or wales truck show this year. Love your new purchase and I would paint it like the photo on your phone. Have a fun couple of weeks working with Kenny (Mr Angry)

[@nippertherestoman]

You wouldn't happen to know anyone that does laser rust removal perhaps, in Inverness? Got a 35X I'm wanting cleaned up. Think we might have met before, our kids go to same school, am in Culloden Rd, cheers!

[@nippertherestoman]

Can arrange to get it blasted ? There’s only one fella I know does the laser blasting ,he’s in nairn but I’ve never used him yet

[@lansing9r]

@@nippertherestoman aye, the chap at Eco Ice said he knew a guy thru Nairn, hasn't got back to me with a number tho. I'll dig about and see if I can find him, pot blasting a bit messy and it's planted in the garage in bits now unfortunately

Nipper More Content Required Wee Man...

[@kiaceratomadman]

Hi nipper matey 👍 it's mark from Wirral Merseyside 👍 first thing first happy new year by the way and it's been awhile since your last KZbin videos. And it's good to see you and trucker Tim catch up with each other. And yes trucker Tim has been busy with things on his KZbin videos because I've been watching them. I was thinking nipper is there any chance that you could help trucker Tim with the Scania R4 series getting that up and running and built before he takes it to a truck show this year 2024 think that's what his plans are for. Anyway about painting the Scania 113 in your truck colours red black and white yes definitely do it for sure it will look great, but I've got a idea why don't you measure the black grill on your truck and make the Scania 113 grill the same as your black grill on your truck think it would look better, rather than the red and black and white stripes look. Anyway great KZbin video nipper and keep up the great work and keep your KZbin videos coming out please thanks from mark from Wirral Merseyside 👍👍

[@disabilityvandriverNI]

Not for sale mate sorry

😭👍🏻

[@impy1980]

That's the internet for ya, always assuming and making stuff up in their heads with zero info. Also SD cards are known for corrupting sooner or later, buying reputable brands reduces the odds, but doesn't eliminate the risk, just the nature of the media, also have a couple handy.

[@paulthrower2855]

Why does trucker Tim looks like he is uncomfortable there the price he is, forgotten his best mates already like 👍

[@deljobes1199]

Your scania 4series is way nicer than tim r500
