Cool and unusual trucks found on Big Lorry Blog

An older semi in Brazil, and I like the grill, full length and looking like a 1940's car design

Cool.

Looks like the back wheels also steer

Looks like water cannons on top, and armor covering the back

This and the last photo in this gallery are both 4 wheels under the cab.

It seems similar to an F.A.R. http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/01/three-wheeled-tractor-trailer-rig.html but definitly not similar to the Scammell or the Tempo, so it seems there might have been another 3 wheel delivery that I haven't learned about yet.


Mighty powerful little trailer mover

Yuck, very ugly, but does it have this design because that allows it to go under the trailers for reversing the trailer into a loading dock?

Best advertising on a trailer rig I've seen in a while

Photos of the unusual from days gone by thread on the HAMB

Sad.



Looks like 2 or 3 Buick bodies grafted together with an RV on top.

if you guessed the above is a stretched Locomobile Model 48 with a 525 CI six, you're right
Never seen Jeeps on a transporter before

Gambrinus Drivers Museum







This museum is located Belgium, at Romedenne in an authentic 19th century brewery-malting and presents a series of old trucks, especially equipped for the transport of beer. Different halls, including 70 thematic display cabinets, which are dedicated to the brands, to the makes of trucks (electricity/steam/petrol), to publicity, to truck manufacturers, etc.

Looks almost like a Tempo, but it's a Scammel truck, and this has to be the smallest semi truck / flatbed combo I'll ever see, and even better, it's a beer truck

The above beer truck is a 1960 Llyod LT 600
