Down under...where ther sun shines, and usually straight into the cameram lens just when you don't want it to...AtkI  Pete says: "G'day Brian, I've just been up the country celebrating Australia day, well if there is a day off involved Aussies will certainly get behind it! As usual I managed to find a few interesting Lorries in my travels. The first one nearly caused a nose to tail accident when I braked to get a better look. I suppose not everyone can notice brake lights but they should be able to spot this classic 1960s vintage Diamond Reo by the roadside."

Pete continues: "This one is still at work, parked outside the local volunteer fire station with a load of water for refilling fire tankers. Its 40 plus all week here and the bushfire danger is on the wrong side of severe." And for a wukc pie what's this...? And don't say a removals van...Now click through here for a couple more...

"An old Inter and a little Dodge, which looks very much like the little Inter. Your Anoraks might be able to explain this likeness. Cheers Pete."
