Southern Transport Foden loading wool bales for Albany 1960’s

Sorry about the gawdawful music.
Different times, eh. Can you imagine leaving a pushbike, unlocked these days?

I’m subscribed to this bloke’s channel. Thought this particular video was worth posting.

Plenty of old trucks amongst other stuff.

Ditto, he features a lot of older gear and he’s quite handy with a spanner.

That’s his profession. I’m not subscribed, but he comes up in my feed.

@ramone nothing to fear here, mate.

WELL SDU , there may well be nothing to fear from your Brown Snakes but i’d like to keep my distance all the same.Now a very little know fact Down Under is that we have a rare species of Brown Snake over here.He’s far less intelligent and much fatter than your version and differs quite alot compared to his Australian counterpart.Yours are very timid and shy and keep out of the spotlight whereas ours loves the spotlight and everytime he opens his venomous mouth he lets himself down.David Lammy’s his name Dier Starmers right hand man. Tune into Mastermind to watch his performance and ask yourself the question is this the best we can do over here

Anymore info on that R190 Inter, Ramone?
1950s~1960s.
It’s on NSW IS plates, restricting it to interstate routes.
Early underfloor fridge van?

It says it was one of the first made with a 372 petrol engine and 6 volt electrics.Not much else sorry

The green Mack’s Oversize sign is a bit unnecessary I would have thought. :rofl:

I would have thought it would have been cheaper to build another house rather than cut one in half and deliver both sections but obviously not because they still do it.

Yes, and I would worry that some of the screws might come loose on the road with so much overhang.:thinking:

I think thete’s alot of screws loose down under ….. i will get my hard hat and leave

You overestimate the intelligence of some car drivers.

Secondhand housed can be inspected in yards, like secondhand cars.
