My father has been driving trucks for the best part of 40years, iveco's, volvo's, scania's and Hino for the last 25years,
the one that stands out the most for me was the Ford Transcontinental, savage truck to a youngster like me back in the early 80's, white and orange tall cab he and his brother drove one each for Avoca Haulage :smokin: aaaaah the memories :icon_pidu:

my auld lad used to have a few truck years ago he sold them to bell lines and ended up driving for them
i think i have a pic somewhere of a volvo in bell colours
 
Ya my dad loved the Hino cause he could fix them on the side of the road no like the newer type trucks that started to come in when you had to plug them into a computer. He had a another pair of hinos after them i'll scan an upload a pic of the 2 of them tomorrow if i can find it. Then he had a Merc, couple of scania's and I annoyed his head till he got a Renault Magnum which I loved :thumbsup:
