Came across this old girl parked by the side of the road. Not concours condition, but someone’s spent time and money getting it to pass NSW (Australia) truck inspection.

Heh, the “modern truck” was a mid-80s Hino FF, 30 years old if it’s a day

Park royal Them Jap & easten moters not so prevalent this part of the world so not regognised by old ■■■■■ like me even after 3 visits Down Under. Seem to have a lot of older moters still earning a dollar over there.

One I pass regular that’s just dying a slow death, needs saving soon, but think it might already be too late.
Cost me 4 wasp stings to get these pics as there was a pallet with a big box on it in front. So to get a good pic I moved the Box off the pallet only to unearth the wasp nest from hell. But it was worth it

I seem to remember Chas Braham having mainly MANs, nice to see the F86 though.

Hi all, in case anyone’s interested and missed them there are two F86’s for sale on eBay at the moment, both in Lockerbie, a 6x2 and an 8x4 tipper.

Axminster Transport - there’s a blast from the past.

Hi, How’s the restoration going? Would love to see pictures if you have done anything further since last posts

steelboyf10 · 5 November 2015 21:11

For sale on eBay…could be a classic

Hey, 50 tonners in the Nederlands. but they have no montains.
Here a lot were used as 38/40 tonner and even at that weight they did wel, much better as Scany’s 80/86 series.
One of the best Volvo’s at its time.

Eric,
