Thanks for the Isuzu id; the model 500 was readable, so it is one of these:

Thanks 'Werkhorse' for those three identifications. Obviously, in my main hobby (railways) I can (and do) identify from equally-subtle clues; in the world of trucking, I must rely on others.
Here are two more modern ones. Even I can get Isuzu and Scania.

Heyfield mill closure threat: Negotiations delayed by Victorian Government.
Herald Sun March 10, 2017.
NEGOTIATIONS to save hundreds of timber worker jobs at Australia’s largest hardwood timber mill in Gippsland have been delayed by the Victorian Government.
The new deadline comes after Agriculture Minister Jaala Pulford cut short her trade mission to Dubai last week to fly home to brief cabinet on potential fixes to keep the mill open.
Government Spokesman Tom Whitty said despite the eleventh hour request for an extension, which was accepted by the Australian Sustainable Hardwood mill, negotiations remained open.
“The decision to return to Victoria after three days in Dubai to attend Gulfood was made prior to the Ministers’ travel schedule being finalised,’’ he said.
“Discussions with Australian Sustainable Hardwood are ongoing and all parties continue to constructively work through these difficult issues.”

The Gippsland business announced it would close in September after VicForests, the state logging company, offered the mill just 80,000 cubic metres of timber a year after the supply deal expires in June.
ASH maintained it would cripple the business which employs 260 workers and impacts on thousands of manufacturers, hardwood suppliers and related industries in Victoria.
Director Clinton Tilley said it had been a stressful time for workers and families in the region.
“Our staff have been in limbo for 6 weeks and it is taking its toll on them,’’ Mr Tilley said.
“Over a hundred thousand dollars have been spent attaining information and reports for the government over the last 5 weeks, and this cannot continue.
“While we are doing everything we can to keep this mill open, there comes a point where the rubber hits the road and the government needs to make the decision.
Up to 50 workers are planning a peaceful rally outside Treasury Place on Tuesday when the Cabinet meets to discuss a potential deal.
The company has asked for an increased timber supply and a $40 million Victorian Government package to refit the mill.

•7000 jobs at risk if Heyfield timber mill closes.

Don't try this with a cheaper brand of truck! :evil:

I'd rather have tools that I don't need, than not have the tools I do need.
