I bought a truck

From the competition.

My mother bought me this Coles "New World' (remember them)  Kenworth way back in 1973 when they opened a store at Mansfield, Sydney.
Think I was about 8.

 

I was surprised that in New Zealand the have New World supermarkets, Coles im front of it

Hi, 
 
shortly after seeing this post yesterday, I was walking into the local supermarket and there was a little tacker, about 4-5 years old, near the entrance holding a big box, that was as long as he was high, and it had a white Kenworth and Woolworths trailer and he was proudly showing anyone who glanced at him his new pride and joy. 

I wondered if in 50 years he would be posting on a forum a picture of said truck still in his possession.

Geeze, I hope so. I know exactly how he felt. 


btw.......store was at Marsfield Sydney not Mansfield.

""New World' (remember them) "
Who could forget that Brisbane band? They wrote the Living Next Door to Alice song.

  I didn't buy mine, Santa gave it to me for Christmas in 1959. Still with the original box 66 years later.
