Wednesday at work , Not as cool as the others but the money made that day makes it look good to me

Sorry it took me so long to reply , Yes sir probably 50 % of my work needs an oversize permit . Moved 4 of those RT cranes this week alone . The rest of the time I'm on this next truck moving cranes from one spot to the next .

That's a beauty,eh? I have a thing for log trucks of the Northwest.

**special-K** · 03-04-2011, 08:04 AM

Here's a cool old International log truck:

**special-K** · 03-05-2011, 08:54 AM

I knew a Lorry and she was very beautiful

. I always liked the British tru...,I mean,lorries because they were still styled like the '50s up to about '70...rounded. Don't forget Bedfords,Scammels,and ERFs. I had Matchboxes growing up and learned a bit about the lorries. Still have them,too. Even Ford and Dodge built trucks there that weren't available in the USA.

Nice lorries!!! BTW

**special-K** · 03-05-2011, 09:20 AM

Nigel,look what you went and did now. You got me going across the pond for cool truck pictures. Here are some Bedfords:

Heavy hauling/oversize loads isn't you're cookie cutter truck driving. It can be a real challenge,I bet.
