I used to drive a Renault like that but blue. Also drove a few on muck. Good trucks.

That was a beast John. Rear vision a tad limited! Looks like a Muir Hill 5000 or similar as well.

Looking at the TK with the square skip, am I right in thinking those skips were fully enclosed and with a drop out floor of some description?
If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

Re: Classic pictures Update 09/04/2017
been a while since anyone has posted much in here so thought I best up load some photos and keep it rolling along
We have been sending the odd load of hay out west
Came across this photo the other day at a Australian truck show I reckon Steve might know what brand this ?????
And how about these hot rods that were owned by Greens Transport if Bourke western NSW
Good old Deutz trucks even as road trains , they sold very well out here for some years but fell behind in the power race and that finished them pretty much

Re: Classic pictures Update 09/04/2017
a unusual one for the lovers of the French machines , note the windscreens are changed to suit flat glass
This was quite a common mod to all breeds of trucks as broken windscreens were and still are a very common thing in Australia and back then it would take months to get a unusual windescreen for the Berliet
Langfield's Transport from Gundagai
some more of these great old Deutz trucks, I have always had a soft spot for them but rarely see any these days if at all even at truck shows they are all but none existent
