Gold Nugget Kenworth, where are they all hiding

No not Phil, from a few stories I was told about him while out there.Some people might have a different opinion ,but I will back mine.

Ive been out of Busted Hole for many a year but since you first posted the comment about the "living legend" Ive been speaking to quite a few of my old mates from BH and they all basically say the same thing, there are two living legends in BH, Ripper Radford and the other one is definitely not PJ, in fact they all referred to him as that $#%@ J---sy and seemed to remember his story on 60 minutes when he tried to tell the world the government was against him and were the root of all of his problems. I'm not saying don't back your opinion just maybe be careful of where the facts you base it on come from.

Ah chocs ol' mate , how would you be ? I take your point chocs but the statement was simply aerodyne - no mention of a high rise sleeper - hence great deal of confusion as an aerodyne is purely a cab over . Oh dear ?

NO, that is just terminology regarding the COE adapted here in Australia. If we are talking gold nuggets which everyone knows in Australia are W-models and SAR's and I state that they had aerodynes........ this means they have Aerodyne sleeper, in Aero 1 configuration which equates to a standup "hi-rise" sleeper, which was released in the late 70's in the USA.
My mention of "Aerodyne" 2.8m K100E (as clarification!) having the same interior was the link i made.
Next time i will be a little more precisie with my statements.

..the kenworth aerodyne config. basically comes down to style of roof offered..be-it the bunk on your ''conventional'', or part of your cabover....

OK i've got some pics of the nugget we used to own




as you can see we used her for a variety of jobs not all ours though

.How gold is that ;)Pity wasn,t a wider shot to pic up its mates

As far as I'm aware the gold nuggets had a plate in the cab confirming it was a gold nugget and it also stated the customer it was built for,I remember seeing one with TYMPAT's name on it.
How about this W-model,it still does the rounds that I know of..... Cheers JOTS.
