Historic Truck Muster at Alexandra 2014

The Rotary Club at Alexandra held their first Historic Truck Muster at the Show Grounds on Sunday, October 12 2014. John went up in the Volvo with the Freighter trailer and took these photos.


This is our 1976 N10 Volvo and 1976 38ft Freigher trailer.


This White was very nice, we had never seen it before but it's a great looking truck.



Another spiffy truck we hadn't seen before was this Inter, an AB180 owned by Wrights of Heathecote. They had the other Inter, shown below on the back of their Kenworth.



Here's a few overview shots of the whole show, there was a modest turn-up, but it should grow in numbers over the years.

If there is a truck show in Victoria that Frank La Torre has not taken his Foden to, then I would be very surprised. He supports every show there is and it is always great to see him and his truck.


This is a Fargo. 


Here's three red Dodges - the one above belongs to Jeff Johnston It's a 1929 model.
