That is a useful guide Swishy but ;
100 series - "straight rail from bumper to end of frame"
500 series - "straight from rear of the truck to bumper"
Isnt that the same thing ??

I always thought that your W model was a real good looker.....I shot this pic of it way back in 1987-88 right next to where your yard is now.hard to believe thats the car park of the tyre service now.....

Who owns it nowdays???

the W in your picture was a 80 or 81 model with an 8v92 Detroit, that was an ex whatley truck, we sold it to a guy at Mole creek Appelby then Greens had it for a while. In the end Collins contracting had the truck up untill last year as there low loader truck but it got burnt to the ground out Smithton way not to sure what happened. the 85 model was sold to a guy in Brisbane and last a heard was carting around Brisbane.
