  • They were the days ... When trucks were trucks and the people who drove 'em knew how to work! ... Not like some of the peanuts that are out there now, if they were dogs you'd shoot 'em!

  • gotta love old trucks

  • What's the purpose of the mud flaps in front of the front tires?

  • Did/do Mack, White, Peterbilt, Kenworth etc make those trucks in the U.S. & ship them to Australia or did/do they have manufacturing plants in Australia??

  • great work makes me realise that i have it bloody easy ,aircon computer, all the comforts of home.The more vids like this there are the sooner some people might realise that without the trucks and the blokes and ladies that drove them we wouldnt have anything.

  • great vid and song!

  • @ 0:31 I remember dad drove a cabover like that.. rough as!!

  • good to see the old FMT trucks....i can remember them as a little tacker here in town....

  • When I was a kid cabovers were everywhere in the US too, also long gone here now.

    Love the Slim Dusty song too. Wonder if there's anywhere in the northern hemisphere to buy his CDs?
