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.

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.

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

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!
