...she had a pretty nasty prang a little while back, and hopefully will live to see a few more roads....cheers mate

...hi LN .. as mentioned elsewhere, that highway haulage Peterbilt (ch/no 19162) was a very unusual spec in that it was the only one that had a factory fit RTO915 Roadranger, whereas all the other highway sleeper cabovers had the 2 stick Spicer

This 1966 Peterbilt was at the Hunter Valley Classic Commercial Vehicle Clubs 4th Muster yesterday and today

Sorry
Here is the photo
