Pommie trucks.

[Hamish]

This old truck is a great survivor. Not the best looking cab, though. Was new to the Shell Oil Co. It is a late 1940s-early 1950s Albion CX1 with 4 cylinder Albion diesel.

I don't see why you aren't fond of the cab, I think it looks very classic, of course every truck I buy everyone else says it's ugly and calls them names.

I've decided they just don't have good taste!

At the time this truck was built Eddy, White were making the 3000 series-a bit more up to date, I think.
