Hi All.

Hi All,

just joined up, looks a great site, I'm an owner operator here in North Island of NZ, been driving for 30 years now, mechanic by trade, still enjoy the life is surely getting harder to earn a dollar but hanging in.The CH is just about to click over a million k's in a week or two.

Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy the fun and info that we have been getting over the last few years . Dave

G'day John. Hope you enjoy it here.

Thanks AW and Dave, I'm sure that there is and will be plenty of topics of interest. At some stage my aim is to restore an R700 with the 375 V8 etc, a truck I always wanted at the time but never got there, drove a few R600's though ( 1 new ) . I'm a bit biased towards Mack in any case.

Well you should like my truck I drive a British Mack. Dave

There is a big Mack gathering up at Colac at Easter 2010, but I dont think Deadlys truck will be allowed in.

John,

Welcome to the forum, plenty of Mack chat here...

Cheers,

T

Dave,

This is not a joke - you mean one with the Motor Panels cab? I know there were a few produced but I did not think any were imported down under? They were as rare as hens' teeth from what I've heard, even rarer than the French ones...

Picture please?

Cheers,

T

Tatra,
The Mack with the Motor Panels cab, is that the one with the front grille made out of two Morris Oxford grilles, one upside down under the other?
Cheers
