This is Rob French's Peterbilt - I think he owned the three of them



Five Whites


Two views of this one, as it had an interesting load.

Cameron Goldsmith's Kenworth
















Can't work out which is the best shot - so you can see them both.







Vyn Harris' Kenworth




Murray Langford's W-model - don't like the bonnet open - it ruins the photo.
