While the original CMP is a work of art of course, here is proof that a CMP can be made to look really ugly

Careful guys, you may cause distress with our English brethren who cherish similar works.

That’s it Rob, the Strathfields must be of British descent. They copied the look and upright seating position of British COE trucks.

"The Strathfield's" aren't a family, Strathfield is a suburb of Sydney. I'm sure that at some time, somebody was proud of that bodywork.
SBW have long gone out of business, but they were well known for their work that was seen on Sydney's roads for years. Everyone knows an Arnott's Biscuits truck when they see one, and A.J. Bush's meat vans were always about back in the day when there were daily deliveries of meat and biscuits to suburban corner stores. |

I'm glad I wasn't having my tea when I opened up the thread.

And after all that redesign they have even worse engine access than the original and the pedals are still in the wrong order. WHY did they do it ?
Actually I think we have two different trucks here. Driver's door, mirrors, damage to bumper, weld on bumper, missing grill bars. David Last edited by David Herbert; 09-06-25 at 15:51. |
