Not as glamorous as you blokes, out and about carting hay
the boys down from  FNQ so I am relegated to driving the truck

 

 
 The little Isuzu's are a great little truck, reckon they made a lotta people a lotta coin over the year's 
They never seem to break down and cost nothing to run
at least that's my experience with them

Yep, the little Japtrucks are great money earners, my little 2 tonner stone carriers have been paying for themselves since day one.

 

 

This little Trader got some flash SS wheel simulators for his 35th birthday last year.

1 of our old girls, 1977 K124CR. Detroit 8V71T, 13sp, SSHD on 6 Rod.
We had her working until a few years ago. She's looking a little sad now unfortunately, awaiting restoration as we get time.

Those were empty, we took them from Townsville to Cloncurry where they got loaded with Zinc concentrate from Dugald River mine then transported back to Townsville. The loaded boxes weighed around 25 Tonnes each so only 1 box per trailer for the trip back. They normally travel on the train; they went by road for a few months while the rail was down due to flood damage.
