yarnall Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Maybe it is familiarity, but I find classic American trucks beautiful and European trucks funny looking. Thanks for the pictures though.

kscarbel2 Posted October 11, 2016 Author Share Posted October 11, 2016 Krupp made a beautiful truck, but I particularly liked the Henschels. The ZIL 130 reminds me of a Bedford TJ.

KC: That big red one (Krupp Titan?) sure looks like they stole some styling ideas from the 38 to 49 Diamond T's..

What sez you Brocky Pommy trucks as ugly as a hat full, never LOL they had some styles really made you wonder what they were thinking well I guess they werent The Aussie adaptions of Pommy trucks had a lot more sex appeal Paul 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47222-classic-trucks-at-iaa-2016/#findComment-349005 Share on other sites More sharing options...
