Clunes Truck Show 2014 - English and European trucks and some buses and two Hondas

The Ballarat Branch of the Historic Commercial Vehicle Club held their 4th annual truck show at Clunes Show Grounds on March 9. It was a great day - around 160 trucks plus cars, tractors and other vehicles. You see heaps of trucks at Clunes that you don't see anywhere else. In this post I will show you all the English and European makes, plus some historic Hondas and a few buses and some historic RACV service vehicles. If you want to see the Chevs, Dodges and Fords that were displayed, then click here. To see all the other American makes such as Inters, Kenworths and Macks, click here.


Warren Harris' AEC - his fleet is shown below



Murray Pope's Albion - you see it twice because I like it!



And here it is again with his Inter


Lots of Austins on display







Another nice looking truck, so  nice, here it is again, below




Plenty of Bedfords as well, they like the English trucks up in Ballarat





Jim Parker's Bedford and the equally well known British Bedford of Dave Horne is shown below





We saw this at Lancefield, as well,  and it's a great truck. Another view is shown below 



Peter Maude's Commer, above, and Steve Camilleri's is below






Two Fargos - the one below is a bit out of focus, but it is too nice  a truck to leave out




This is a Honda, 2 views.



Another Honda - this belongs to Warren Harris


Warren Harris' other truck - a Karrier
