Greetings. The photo of the Kennelly's F model was taken in Nuriootpa before the main street was by-passed and these days I don't think trucks are permitted to use the main street at all. Same goes for Tanunda.

Thanks overlander, gees I wish I knew what fleet number the F models in the posted pics have. Mine was #311 and it had the intake precleaner above the R/h window ( as all of Kennelly’s had ). It got damaged early in the piece and took me awhile to fix it.

Those old bangers were honest and trouble free in their day. Once I setup two trailers I regularly grossed 100+ tons Adelaide to Darwin or north west, never had a breakdown in nearly 10 years of ownership. It had 48 mph diffs @ 2100 revs. so would pull anything.
