2ov 7170cm3 comes from the manufacturer Scania Vabis. According to the available register data, the vehicle dates from 1961. The truck is 7,500 mm long and 2,470 mm wide. The unladen weight is 5,800 kg. The permitted gross weight is 12,000 kg. The engine has 6 cylinders, with a displacement of 7,170 cm³. The Finnish vehicle register lists one example of this model.

Scania-Vabis – other models: the collective page of trucks under the double name from 1911 to 1969, from pre-war types with L for Lastbil to the L51, L65 and L76, 66 to 210 kW, four- to eight-cylinders of 5.2 to 15.6 litres

This page gathers the Scania-Vabis trucks the register could not assign to a named range. Scania-Vabis was the brand name under which the Swedish maker from Södertälje traded from 1911 to 1969, after the Maskinfabriksaktiebolaget Scania, founded in Malmö in 1900, merged with the older Vabis carriage works; in 1969 the double name gave way to Scania alone. The types gathered here range from pre-war models with the letter L for Lastbil through the 1950s ranges such as the L51, L65, L71, L75 and L76 to the last Scania-Vabis model years around 1969; the attached numbers usually denoted engine power and range, though a consistent scheme can no longer be reliably reconstructed from the model names in the register alone.

The register lists here 117 versions with 66 to 210 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 5,191 to 15,607 cm³, unladen weights from 3,890 to 15,830 kg, gross weights from 5,020 to 30,210 kg, lengths from 5,100 to 12,000 mm and widths from 2,200 to 2,600 mm.

With its diesel engines and rugged chassis construction, Scania-Vabis shaped the Swedish truck industry and laid the foundation for today's Scania AB, which alongside Volvo ranks among Europe's leading commercial-vehicle makers; vehicles of this era are today seen chiefly as restored classics and at commercial-vehicle gatherings in Scandinavia.

On these historic chassis, what counts is chiefly the rust condition of frame and cab, engine and gearbox condition, the availability of parts through Scania-Vabis clubs and classic-vehicle specialists, and a well-documented vehicle history; a workshop experienced with early commercial vehicles is essential for restoration.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
