Thanks for posting that one Trevor,for every-one else out there that is Chappo's (AKA Aerodyne) K123 and is identicle to the photo Oldfulla posted and has a 335 Cummins.The only thing that doubted me was Chappo's K123 had chrome vents since its original working days at Haddad's but doesn't seem to have a chrome vent in that left door of Oldfulla's photo????
Cheers James.

I dont know whats happening here - but here the photo is again.
Oldfulla

Yes that one works.

Works for me too, thanks.

From what I can gather: Was purchased new in 1969, 335 Cummins, 15 speed direct box, 38,000lb diffs on Hendrickson walking beam rear suspension.

So - does that make it a K123? Just that I'm not sure what is classsed as 'heavy diffs' and 'heavy spring suspension'.

Can anyone clarify that bit for me please?

Oldfulla - still wondering

It would be a K123R.... I was suspecting it was a Haddad truck with a NTC335 but the RT-915 cancels that out,wonder if it had a transmission change???
So Aerodyne does your Seattle K123 have a 15 speed??? Cheers James.

Was a 15 speed RR from new - and it wasnt a Haddad unit. Not from new anyway. It was traded on a W Model in about 1973.

Was Haddads/Chappos a 13 speed?

Peter, close to that spec and around 1969 I've found one possibility:

111909 for Yager, sold through KW NSW and same spec except overdrive 15

As a matter of interest, in 1969, there is 111920 for Haddad shown with an NTC335, an overdrive 15 and SQHD on KWR suspension .
