Yep, it's more trucks from the 80s, 90s and 00s again.

This Scammell S26 of Freightways Express parked outside Copthorne Solway Park Motor Inn in Masterton has a fairly plain paint job, but lots of extras: chrome vertical exhaust stack, aluminium wheels and tanks, chrome bumper and front panel over grille and air-horns on top of cab. I'm not sure what the unusually shaped objects on the B-train are. |

Schdroski Transport displayed this MAN at a truck show at Hutt Park in the Wellington area. |
|
"Deputy Dog" was a 1987 Mack Super-Liner R722RS of Clive Taylor Transport, again this is at Hutt Park.. |
|
Hutt Park again for this Scania R142M of Retko Haulage. |
|
Three axle Scammell S26 with three axle trailer and a load of beer at Copthorne Solway Park. Unfortunately not my favourite brand (Lion Brown that is, not Scammell) |
|
A 1988 Nissan Concrete Special was a model developed by the NZ Nissan importers for the concrete business. Seen here in Capital Concrete livery. |
|
MacAuley's Transport yard in Masterton is the setting for this 1994 Peterbilt 362 of Equipment and Transport Leasing. |
|
A Cochrane's Transport Freightliner Argosy is about to spend the night at Masterton Motor Lodge. |
|
Contrasting colours of truck and trailers on this 2000 DAF XF530 at Day's Bay near Wellington |
|
Before Premier Bacon operated their stunningly liveried Hino 700, they owned this 1999 Hino FS with minimal sign-writing. |
|
NZ's Mack importers. Motor Truck Distributors completely restored this 1960 Mack B615RS as a promotional exercise. |
|
John Lockley operates many unusual American rigs. Here is his 1991 International Navistar 8200 at Petone. |
|
A 1992 FLA Freightliner of Kevey's Transport, with just the sheets lashed to its B-train's decks, rests at Seaview. |
|
Also at Seaview is this Scania and trailer of New Zealand Couriers. |
|
The Brett Morris International Transtar 4670 was quite an impressive rig when it hit the road in 1991. |
Great pics mate and what a great site.
ReplyDeleteI love the pomie trucks from the 70's and 80's.
Do you have any Road Air or RFL pics, especially Leyland/AEC ergo's?
Cheers Jamie
Thanks for the comments Jamie. They are always appreciated. The numbers tell me there are quite a few people looking at my site, but not many commentors. I will have a look through my photos and see if I've got anything that you specifically like. I have a few Rodair and RFL photos, but I think they are from a bit later era....Trev
