Diamond T question

Bit of a vague one here as I don't have the photo handy. Basically, I've got a DT pic I'm running in ACC but I can't work out the model of the truck shown...despite having seen them before.

Bonnetted, square rad with the usual DT chrome bars, square mudguards, dual headlights in guards, bogie drive. Basically, I think the next model on from Podge's beast.

Hi Andy it is probly a P5000 fitted with a reo cab . l will check with Jim tomorrow and let you know. Podge

Thanks Podge, I'll endeavour to send you the pic tonight to confirm. Won't be finishing the June issue for a few days yet (ahhhh, work!) so there'll be time to get it right.

I agree with you on the cab though.

Barry, if you read this, they're the same model as the one at the back of Carbone's yard in Brunswick Junction.

I do beleive about th@ era of Diamond T truck n they went to V6-53 screemin GM power
Th@ pic looks like it has the Pioneer quarries logo on the door

Thanks Swishy. Interesting that the diamond on the radiator seems higher on your pic.

the diamond Ts are a very distinctive truck

Andy,

I believe I have to agree with Swishy there! Those Diamond T's were owned by Pioneer (now Hanson) - if you were to Google Pioneer Quarries Diamond T's, you might just get somewhere!
