Wow, I've delivered lumber with a roll-off truck but never a roll-over truck.

Anyone notice the rear tire tread on the Fletcher lumber truck?  That Lyons  borough hall somehow seems less imposing that when new Fords were sold there, must be camera angle?   Thanks for putting up these pics.

I'm liking the mono rail recovery truck. that would make a cool retro hauler.

1911 Hokianga Harbour (northwest coast of North Island of NZ) - the scows KORORA (left 3 masts) and RELIANCE (right 2 masts). These flat bottomed cargo boats were designed to be beached between tides for loading and were the heavy trucks of the day.

Another photo of KORORA.
