Was that CB Transport? Charlie Banks by chance.

I don't think that was his name.I have it in my phone contacts,a search for Banks came up with no results

No worries , CB transport closed down in the last 12 months he had some COE and SAR KW's for sale.

KW came thru with part of the build sheet, originally an 8V71TT, ive been told its an 8V92T now, whats the easier way of Identifying it? the motor sits very low between the chassis rails, not much is visible. Old owner told me that the new motor came out with a monster of a turbo, that wouldn't fit under the cab, so he fitted the original turbo...

A lot more high pressure cleaning and i find most of the undercarriage has orange paint under it, apart from the bolt on steering arms they are bright yellow.
Does any one have an contact with the old CJ Dean Enterprises business out of wagga, they first bought the truck... in 1978.

Linz, CJ Dean were Bought out By Ron Finemore back in the '90s. Who was taken Over by TOLL in (about) 2003-4. They both kept CJ's a seperate stand alone business right up until 12-18 Months ago When Toll's Closed It Up..
