drawings from past to future

Remember when going scotch (if from the south), or going down to the smoke (if from the north), was long distance?
When Middle East work was readily available?.
When driving a 111 or F89 meant you were truly the king of the road?
Recall those companies long gone, where every day was an adventure?

What ever happened to those drivers you spent hours with.. where did they go? and recollect on those characters in the industry sadly no longer with us.
This forum is for us all to indulge in a little nostalgia and remember with rose coloured glasses how much better it was in the olden days

How about a book, Benkku? An attractive coffee-table type book, nothing too technical. Working title- Trucks of Scandinavia 1950-2000. The drawings/paintings would make it more attractive than mere photos, I reckon.

Yes... I always thought you should get a bit of recognition... Your style is very similar to Tom however the subject matter is quite different...

Old Pond publishing would be a good place to start... but Taschen might have better distribution, and already do a large collection of art portfolios...

That would be great Benkku. I agree with Anorak and Jelliot.
