    of interest.

    Thanks Ian, I look forward to looking at that link.

    The R190 in the pic below is the same as mine except mine had a black bumper and no pin stripes.
    It would cart 85 bales of wool when the clip was on.
    Also had a 3 tier stock float that would carry a couple of hundred sheep.
    Hated carting sheep because you have to stop now and then to stand the buggers back up and when you are crawling around in the lower tiers the mongrels would take great delight on ****ing on you.
    Grrr, occasionally one would end up with a black eye if he started to laugh.

    Perhaps would be a good idea to give this truck to Cootes for a year to see how it can handle a rigorous maintenance program

    Wish I still had mine.
    In January 1967 I drove a R190 with a drilling rig on the back from Alice Springs to Brisbane.
