Freightrain Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 RH drive would be pretty cool around these parts. Really different.

ianoz Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Hi Guys , He reckons he is going to do it up . He had been trying to talk the old owner into giving it to him for the last 20 years ,HE said it looked a lot better back then . My mate has a 1988 superliner that works every day and a couple of R models , And a 1967 Flintstone ,he is currently restoring . We , My son and myself have 3 B models , All pretty rough , but one runs .. We aussies have become pretty goode at using the left hand for changing gears .

oldmacktrucks Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 How about this one ? A photo of a mates B model .The few B Models we had were worse then this one! I dont cut good stuff, I dont think there was anything that could have been saved on the trucks we junked, years and years of being moved by payloaders, stripped and very very rusty!
