IH Club Bus Trip

Yesterday we went on a bus trip from Geelong to Colac to look at a truck and tractor collection. There was another bus load from Ballarat and some locals joined us in their vehicles. There were 70 people in total on the tour. The number of people and the cramped conditions the trucks were displayed in make photography difficult but apparently they all come out for the Colac Truck Show (or so I was told) Here are some photos of some of the trucks concerned.

The AB150 is for sale

:)Bruce you did well to get these great photos of Merv Brunts trucks. The work that has been done is fantastic. It is a great collection with different makes and models. The HCVC should go for a visit to see the collection.

G/day everyone, it's great to see the collection has moved to a more permented address ,as it was bit disjoinited with some at Merv's home and the rest at the showgrounds.
As a club we went quite a few years ago and i belive one of our members is organizing a run in the near future,yes it looks like a lot of collections trying to jam to many trucks into a small space :'( what a pitty and hard for photo's.Dave
