A bit off thread I know but here’s a pic of a model I made of Nick’s 142 UJW585Y. It’s not 100% accurate,I added a few extra bit’s and pieces.

I love a model that you feel you could climb into & drive away! :smiley: Chris

A couple from Israel made by Drod Sankevich, a local coachbuilder who saw an opening in the market given that Mack’s agents did not, initially, offer a sleeper option on the F700s and DM800s. Very clean conversions in my view and the right way of going about the job.

Looks as if the whole truck was built in some backyard workshop!

Couple more

I was in charnock many years ago (sixties)one night and got talking to a young lad who new it all type,and he was adamant he had a sleeper cab on his Thames trader I just nodded my head and put it down a rich imagination,I finished my meal and we left,when we got outside low and behold he had a trader,the sleeper on the back(I can’t type for laughing)was about eighteen inches high with a tarry felt roof,the sides were made of old pallets (fifteen inches)high vertical slats,when he switch on his cab light it looked like a cage(I am still laughing)

Here are the same two good pictures optimised. Such a transport must have put up the price of a sack of cement!

I shall have to put more photos on to be optimised thank you for that Froggy55
That load wasn’t cement it was urea[fertaliser] for a station called Beverly Springs which is about half way up the Gibb River rd in northern Western Aus in 1973.

The caption says it’s Turkish, but the comments section corrects that. The RHA crest on the front bumper is a giveaway LOL.

The sacks were full of urea and thanks for the photo upgrades Froggy.
