The register holds no other series from the manufacturer Stalword, so this text describes the vehicle class the 6X6 RHD of 1967 to 1968 represents: a chassis with drive to all three axles and right-hand steering, of the kind built for off-road special vehicles of that era.

The 6X6 RHD is driven by an eight-cylinder engine and stands on six wheels, with a wheelbase of only 3,050 mm, a length of 6,350 mm and a width of 2,600 mm. The vehicle weighs 8,920 kg empty, with a gross vehicle weight of 9,595 kg.

At a gross vehicle weight of 9,595 kg the 6X6 RHD falls into EU class N2 between 3.5 and 12 t. The designation 6x6 stands for six wheels with drive to all three axles, a configuration built above all for off-road capability rather than high road speed. The wheelbase of 3,050 mm, short in relation to the vehicle's length, improves manoeuvrability and mobility over uneven ground.

Buying a 6x6 vehicle of this age second-hand starts with checking the transfer cases and driveshafts of all three axles for play and leaks, since a full-time drivetrain to all wheels has more wearing parts than a two-axle vehicle. The eight-cylinder engine calls for a check of compression and the cooling system, and given the 1967 or 1968 build year, frame corrosion and the condition of the axle differentials deserve a look as well, since both are heavily stressed on off-road vehicles.
