What truck is this?
mrsmackpaul replied to Big Steve's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Neither of you, looks like a Federal to me, the pressings in the cab, the cut outs in the bonnet ( hood for you lot )and the Federal badge just above the head light Paul -
Yeah a creep, prick or a asshole He was a good actor, I dont think all his parts were that way, I think most of us associate him with that type of character Paul

Yep the world is sure in a mess over something we cant see taste smell or feel Im fortunate or unfortunate enough to remember the last big crash in Australia in the late 80's early 90's so took very drastic and decisive measures early on I'm not sure what everyone else is doing in Australia but people are just starting to look at the longer term effect of Covid 19 in the weeks months and year ahead I think only now are Mum and Dads getting concerned Hopefully for them it isnt all to late but I feel unfortunately really tough times are fairly likely ahead for a lot of us Paul
