Gazza's 'Pacific Paradise'....Biglorryblog welcomes back old Hobble-along with his big yellow dumper!

'Hobble-along You-know who' e-mails me this gem and to say: "Hi Brian, just read the piece of Scott's Pacfic Truck Club---good work. So hope you can pass on these two pics to him - my entire photo collection of Aussie Pacifics!! In 1978 I had a Summer job when I was going through college in the workshop at the Tasmanian government run hydro dam project at Tullah. We had Haulpaks and Pacifics engaged in the earthworks. From memory, there were 6 Pacifics - Cummins NTC 335, big Allison auto and Clark (??) rear axles." And in case you've been asleep at the back the 'Scott' Gary is referring to is Scott McKenzie, webmeister of two of the best trucking websites around -- i.e. for the famous brands of Pacific http://www.pacifictruckclub.org and Hayes http://www.hayestruckclub.org/ trucks. Scott has recently revamped both sites (so worth a visit). Now click through here for more.....
