yes it look s like an eastoes truck . i remember when they were all sold off 6 to 12 grand i think peterbilts and kenworths. used to work on the cummins engines when eastoes were in their heyday. was going to buy one .

Here's some pics of one I had a few years ago, it had a 250 Cummins,15 od and 38's on crowbar in it. Basil's going to look at that fuel tank and think, that's what I'm looking for. Anyway, I sold it to a chap in Melbourne. Check oput the wooden mudgaurds, they are style.

Danny actually has more pic's of the early K100s

Thanks for the pictures guys they look great, Werkhorse the truck was planted in the blackberrys near Georgetown and hadnt moved since 1981, the owner died and i brought it from his estate, the chap who had it used it with a semi tipper etc. it has a NH250 Cummins a 15dp and 6 rod. its in our yard feel free to call in and have a look if the gates open!!
