Overlander's old Photos

I spy the Datsun dealer. Ted Bulpitt's brother-in-law, perhaps?

Jarrod.

Paul:: looking at the photo of Conie Jones Flintstone reminds me of the time I had to deliver 2 pallets of disinfectant in 5 gallon drums to his small depot in I think it was Brown st Newtown ,what a shed rough old concrete floor .he had this little old forklift it had wheels about the size of saucers with a little skinny steering wheel that ripped the forklift drivers hands off the wheel when it hit many of the potholes in the floor .The bloke who worked in the depot reconed that Conie Jones bought the forklift of Capt Cook when he came to Australia it was that old. don't remember the make but I think it was a Clark:::: Swanny

Yes Swanny, bet that Flintstone shifted a lot of stock in its day.
Note the crate about 6 inches forward on the trailer, every square
foot counts to get more on.
Was the disinfectant to treat the sheep decks for footrot?
Had to occasionally use formalin when a fussy grazier bought sheep
at the sales, from a property known to have "toey" sheep.
Bloke worked for on general had a fork like that, grey motor on gas.
Flat out to get over the cracks in the concrete, let alone lift anything.

Paul don't remember the name but if a drum leaked when you picked it up & it got on your boots & into your socks it really burnt & wrinkled the skin on your feet.

Greetings. The Autocar has been posted before way back near the start but I can't help myself as there is not a lot of Autocar photos on this thread- belonged to Wayne Lyson from Aldinga Beach. I choose the TNT/Bunker trucks for Werk but I see they get taxed to a Bunker FB page with Nev's name cut off- what ever rocks their boat. I've been spending hours and hours re-organizing my photo albums for the photos to be in posting order of this thread which then leaves the photos that missed the cut which included the Mcdonalds' kenworth that was tickled up as the Detroit Devil so I'll add them next week to refresh your memories. Anyways- next time.

McDonald's Kenworth, and Schrapel' s when new.
