g'day jimmy and all .. the semi assembled trial bay truck is their second unit and both had an angle mounted luberfiner
the liquid cartage S model definitely had the curved LH mirror brackets and like trial bays' first S model, an unusual air horn arrangement (swishy's website pic awz jpg)...cheers

Werk, as far as I know there was only one, the very first one. It's still about apparently, I remember talking to a bloke around Newcastle I think ages ago was telling me about it.

G'day Werkhorse.... Why do you say it was in TNT colours??? Sounds like you know something that I would like to know about...
Bigcam is sort of correct.The first COE was a angle back cab,but there was also another angle back cab in stock as a spare part.It eventually ended up on one of Martin's Overland's first COE's after an apparent accident.So there was actually two angle back cabs.
I don't know of any connection with either of these trucks with TNT.This is the COE Bigcam is referring to...
Cheers James.

Thanks for that Werkhorse... Thats definately the same K100 pictured above.I notice a few changes including a black "kenworth" plate under the door.I'm guessing that would be a subbie... Cheers James.

...just look what pops up on this forum :
there is a very good chance it is the martins overland truck...sunvisor, cab steps, badges, and no known history of the trial bay rig being in with TNT...but there is big gaps in the martins' history ??
