I know that Atkinson built trucks there at one time but that was many years ago now.
Great stuff Fred look forward to hearing all about your adventures down under.

Hi Jeremy,
Here's an Atki I cought up with at one of the shows, and a few more Brit trucks.
Sadly I don't think any trucks are made in Oz. now, (except possibly Iveco)???
GM Holden, (Vauxhall), Ford and Toyota are all set to cease car production by 2017. The story goes that Toyota have been experiencing union troubles and the last straw was when on the Monday after Auatrailia Day (Jan 26th) only 60% turned in for work with the rest reporting sick.
