Australian Volvo Truck Heritage Group

Good news - there is now an Australian Volvo Truck Heritage Group - for all lovers of old Volvo trucks (and isn't that everyone?). It's part of the Hunter Valley Classic Commercial Vehicle Club website www.hunteroldtrucks.com. Below are some Volvo ads from the early 1970s.


This is an advertisment for the F86 & the G88 which appeared in the July 1971 Truck & Bus Transportation magazine.



Above and below, this is from the May 1972 Truck & Bus Transportation magazine. I wonder what happened to Geoff Nubley and whether he still has the truck?


This page is from the October 1972 Truck & Bus Transportation magazine. The Volvo factory in Wacol opened in June 1972.
