the mack in the newexco colours is NOT from the same company as the blue/white one , the newexco mack was owned by the owner-operator h. van der rijd from holland , the other was from neef transport

and the FB89 shwon at the copy from the magazine was een volvo FB89 owned by kloosterman transport from the township gieterveen , also in holland
