Truckin about the district

Can see spark plug leads....

You're right, must be an optical delusion on the size of the tappet covers.

5L injected Holden if you have a really close look, what makes the rockers covers look GMish is the fuel rail above them.

Had a good day out with the Golden Oldies truck club on a mystery tour of a couple of venues, a type of museum and a cockys place both at Gilgandra.. cunnin 'woulda loved it.. heres a couple, one of a few of the big rigs and mondela's ute in the dust, a few more tomorra...jk

Thanks JK,worst thing about the kw its almost mission impossible to use the clutch due to the steering wheel and gear lever. my 13yr olds kids dont seem to have a problem yet ,and no power steering .The loader is a new one and has 150hrs onthe clock ,it is a chinese one tho

These old darlings are in Hamilton Vic - can't remember if i've posted em before, so hope not!

And this was in Bendigo...it's a really nice old Road Boss

And this was the cab that someone put up a while ago, sitting unloved in a yard in Bendigo.

And THIS is just great. Seen at Marulan a while ago, genuine working classic. How good is that!!!

Funny, there was one of Stoight's almost new Mack's there as well- the lady driving it (yep) commented on how unreliable it has been. and how much she loved our old bangers. Wonder if she'd think that if she did the miles in the B model....?
Cheers
