Overlander's old Photos

Thanks, some great old shots there!

Interesting Diamond Reo's in the last two pictures
As a matter of fact they are all pretty good

I like the slim line Dodge ? cab over , I wonder is it the one that is now in the Alice Springs Museum.

Greetings. The first Autocar was taken on a photo taking safari to Sydney and Newcastle- Tommy Hudson, the blue COE was taken in Dec '75, the next one at Detroits in '74, the year I started my apprenticeship and could afford color film. The red striped Autocar taken at Gepps Cross in '76 and probably the same for Mr McDonald's and the Wayne Lyston {I think] jobbie. The instamatic b&w Diamond was WM & JM Kirkby, the flash photo of the blue & white Diamond was Kieth Lanfranchi, the yellow 7564 taken in Dec '73 was a Mr Ryan from Victoria. The Deacon Avenue gets me thinking it may be the one Schrappel's Traders had, but I wouldn't put money on it. Werkhorse tells me the instamatic B & W P-bilt was a mob going by the name of Mainline taken in Aug '73, the green D-REO I took at the Sydney HT - Green's Trans,May '72. Didn't see many of those day cab Dodges- I think it's the only photo I have of one, Taken at Detroits -so probably an 8-71. The day cab 7564 was a Mauries Trans and the last photo ws Robinvale-Sydney Trans. I will sort out some more tonight for next week. Stay tuned

One wonders how many of those "premium" trucks survive....

Great pix!
