Hi Joe, err, aren't you W924SAR on Werkhorse's "Truck mad people" forum? Please don' t think I am bagging you mate , you are right, you have to have a dream , and you too can have your picture taken beside a refugee from the scrapyard like I did ,on my "lack of progress report " thread on the forum, remember mate , only $2500.00 and a similar piece of " aussie trucking history"could be yours .
And by the way why should you be happy having no truck when the rest of us are tearing our hair out trying to keep/ restore these old nails going?
regards Harleigh

Harleigh,

You found me! I am showing my loyalty to the old SAR - don't like the T404/408SAR much..... too square in the front and the front mudguards ain't right - if they made them a tad rounder like the old one, I might change me mind!

Me old man would not let me keep a truck in bits at our place..... hence the idea of keeping the original purchase I had in mind at my mate's place......

Joe, just lash out, buy a truck and bring it home.....

It's always easier to get forgiveness than permission...

VK3UAO,

The truck in question is the exact same model as your truck but the one I am thinking of is a 1850/B with a turbo 6.354 Perkins - the only problem is that I want mine to look like a rellie's former 1830/A which had the German D358 diesel.....

Which means shortening the chassis, changing the engine, finding a tipper body, ram, PTO and pump... might just give up and be a good son!!!!

Joe

PS: I will find something at the right price.... the 1850/B I'm looking at is $5390 including GST and is worth $3300 cash!
