Indeed Keith, even a CMP in the same album!

It seems this last one has a hood in a different color(?). Replacement hood or air-recognition?

Last time I saw it it was a working rolling chassis, with the cab off being worked on. I'm not sure where it is at at the moment, I don't think that the cab is back on yet. his 2nd one is still rusing away in the yard which is a pity. not many of these big girls out there still.

I don't know if geoff has a copy of that, I'll ask him this weekend. Any chance of getting it copied if he does not have a copy?
