Ford Transcontinental

I think mazz will say His got the ford badge spaced out wrong :laughing: :laughing: but he aint got a ponytail so thats alright.

Nah- he should have left it alone IMO :wink: , think the transcon was a nice looking truck as it was :sunglasses: :sunglasses: - what happened to Ken Trowell is he still running?

Have to disagree there, completely over the top :open_mouth: :frowning: , absolutely ruined it for me- sideskirts, supersingles,BLING? :confused: :confused: ■■?- but what would you expect from a [zb] with a ponytail :wink: :laughing:

Like that last Transcon pic MOC. :wink:

Some vehicles naturally just “look” the part and that whole rig definatly does.!

Its got long distance written all over it,though equally, he may only be tipping just outside of Calais! :smiley:

Great pics. :wink:

Nice looking motor, but no TIR plate, so assuming it was EEC only, you’re not supposed to be able to see the belly tank :laughing: The split tanks on the unit add weight to my theory, the big one for the cherry and the little one for the white, a set of snap on hydraulic connectors and Robert is your Mother’s, Sister in Law’s Husband :wink:

So I heard anyway :laughing:

Nice model too andrew s :wink:
