harrybarbon Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hi Paul thank you for the video, especially during our 🔒 here in the wonderful state of Victoria 😆 All the best with the remaining repairs and then the trip home to Kerang. Please is there a hole in the bonnet/hood nest the Doggie for access to the radiator? Enjoy the rest of your passion for this unique livestock trailer.

mrsmackpaul Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 Harry there was a time I thought it was quite common for all R models to have that hole in the bonnet, turns out I was wrong lol The bonnet and cab has a few extra cut outs like that that no one ever see's When the bug deflector was on the bonnet you couldn't see that hole from inside or outside Once Covid does what ever the fudge it's gunna do you should come and check out this wide brown land Bob Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67807-out-and-about-in-mrs-mack/#findComment-478845 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Paul,Dumb Butt question!!! Maybe I missed something, but how come you went up thru Mackay to Townsville and back down before you started south toward home????

mrsmackpaul Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 No dumb questions here Was meant to collect a load of steel RSJ beams near Mackay but when I went to collect them they weren't as described There was something I wanted to look at in Townsville, for the life of me I can't remember what now, I do remember that I sat there for a day waiting for the cleat that went walk about when I busted a stud between Ayr and Mackay Also wanted to collect a McGrath axle McGrath is a brand of semi trailer made in Australia up until the mid 80's and when ever I see axles come up I collect them as spares are getting harder to find And seeing my son as well at Ayr Pretty sure I wanted to look at a old COE Mercedes Benz truck, a rare one as well but I honestly cant remember what I was gunna look at at Townsville May of been a Superliner as there was a mob there that HeavyHaulageAustralia bought out before going belly up had a heap of old series I and II's on heavy work, that long ago now I cant remember Long story short I ended up getting steel beams in Adelaide from a old Supermarket roof But thats a whole other story Paul 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/67807-out-and-about-in-mrs-mack/#findComment-480517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
