My guess is a QLD Bedford and I don't mean Queensland. Where is Richard when you need him!

Did anyone take some good photos of John Belfields Kenworth Wrecker?
A good friend is restoring one and is dirty I didn't take any photos of it.

Cheers

Hi Jeff,
I am still here in NSW. Definitly a QL, but only the GS Cargo was a QLD, cannot remember what Tony's was originally, I did help him for about 5 days back in 2000 when he was rebuilding it.

Have sent you a PM on another matter.

regards, Richard

Does anyone have any interesting stories about Corowa such as getting to the event, getting home from the event, purchases made at the swap meet, things they observed etc. I have started doing a report and like to include stories shared by participants. Hopefully Jeff will give me a report on the mtorcycle trip from Qld. The boys made it into the Wangaratta Chronicle on Monday after our visit to Pentarch.

Shane Hodby from Qld has just sent me his story of trials and tribulations regarding transporting 3 Studebakers on a B-Double to Corowa.

Read all about it in the next KVE Newsletter, due out in early June, along with other stories of this year's participants journies to and from Corowa.

This morning I received an email from David King from Wallerawang. He drove his Studebaker to Corowa and after filling up on Sunday morning had an impromptu 2 night stay in Wagga thanks to a load of dirty/ water logged fuel (and several other cascading issues as a result).
