.Heres some pics of our sons first Kenworth



Ex Roadmaster............1985............407719............



Bought as traded by R/M & dragged these trailers around for quite a few years.

Had a new cab earlier in life ( i believe ) Had done over 1.1/4 million Ks when he bought it &

then did roughly the same again.

The rear susp (crow bars) had a few bushes & pins replaced , but nothing major.

The 8/92 dropped a follower , stuffing the block, so a new donk was fitted & later had a bit more work

done on it . Spicer box not touched , same as the clutch.

Back diff was re raced,...& that was about it for the running gear ....Other than brakes & the usual

stuff that has to be done. Oh & one new radiator .

After it was retired , it sat around for a few years, then a bloke bought it & we believe its still working

over in WA after bein re painted silver (Of all colors).



Theres the happy (i think) owner giving it a tub.

Bloody hell !!!!!! that pic was taken in 97......how time flies.................

Spotted this old girl a few months ago on Pennant Hills Road heading toward the M1.



Not sure how it would go at the Weigh Station as it doesn't look all that flash.

The car on the trailer is (I think) A Lanchester BIDSTBC.

Not sure what the white Ute is but it has to have the shortest tray you've ever seen!
