Default Re: Cars you don't see many of anymore

another non car but it is a very rare truck in Oz. Again at Holbrook. NSW.
We never got the US C series cabovers as Ford Aust sold the Pommie D series here and later Cargo.
This is a medium/heavy duty truck which were built between 1967 and 1990, without much change.
A very successful design, everyone from fire depts, towing, short haul deliveries to garbage compactors companies used them.
All the cabs were built by Budd and also supplied Mack with a similar cabover medium. They used a myriad of engine combination from small straight 6 petrols and big gasser V8's to Detroit, Cat, Ford and Cummins.
