The previous owner started the engine of the rare TAM 5500 - a rig with a single-axle semi-trailer - in 1996. Shortly before that, the engine was completely overhauled. Now that he had decided to sell it, the buyer drove in a TAM 331 and took an old rig home with it. But a buyer managed to ignite the old TAM 5500 before that and drove on a low-floor semi-trailer, despite the fact that it did not have a gas pedal in the cabin and that the filters were clogged due to 25-year-old fuel. The truck is already with the new owner and is awaiting renovation.
