This appliance still runs well and with a little work will look good as new....

Interesting that the older Summertown 24 truck has a full height back equal to the cabin height, but the newer trucks do not. Never understood why the newer trucks do not have the same height backs (unless people overload the lockers with equipment)...cant think of another reason.

The cab heights are nearly 3 metres nowdays so a little too high to build trucks like they used too
