    Ex Kerswell maybe. Kerswell would have been written in red on the door

    All I can think of seeing the vegetation is all of the Australian nasties Steve Irwin showed us Americans. Funnel spiders and every kind of poisonous snake imaginable. Love the truck though

    Cabovers bring back memories over here in the USA🇺🇸. I remember back in the 1980s & down I saw them everywhere. Today we mostly have conventional cabs because the length limit over here increased which made cabovers no longer needed to pull trailers that are more than 40ft long.

    • @bradgray8064
      @bradgray8064  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes that length limit did a lot for cab overs. Cheers

    Never seen a RHD K100 before. Looks awesome and a good restoration project for someone.

      It's actually a K123 but still very close. There are many K100's running around Australia still though.

    Swear I've seen this truck before, maybe Truckin Life magazine or on the net. I think it had the company name in red. Love pre mid 1990s trucks.

      The rear suspension is Hendrickson, not Reyco. Reyco suspension has 4 spring packs, 2 on each axle.
