Drew Murdoch is a classic truck enthusiast, he ofter shows his vintage Scanias at shows around the country. If you see him at a show have a word with him, an interesting and knowledgable chap indeed

We stumbled across this fantastic pickup at an Austin Ten Drivers' Club rally a few years ago, great signwriting.

A pic of one of the trucks which belonged to my dad's side father and grandfather haulage business.

A Dodge isn't it? I presume it was war surplus? Great looking lorry.

On that line, this is the only pic I have of my grandfathers lorry Smile

Great pics , we both really like working vehicles and are always more interested in the commercials at shows than the cars .

Never knew what happened to the truck after it got sold, my uncle was for some time asking around for it but I do not think he ever found out in the end and just gave up!!

I think that photo must have been taken in the 50s!
