- Filmed by Grant Hanlen (approx 1989) this fantastic footage gives a glimpse back in time. These trucks were driven by guys we now consider the legends of our industry in New Zealand. #mack #macktruck #macksuperliner #kenworth #truckhood #oldschool #oldschooltrucking #newvideo #scania #scaniatrucks #erf #erftrucks #international #internationaltrucks #trucks #trucking #newzealand

This era an those v8 Mack's make me sooo happy. But all the truck of this time t-lines, those loud erf, snowman's kenworth. Thank you mate
RIP Clif Guy , ( Snowman)
Appsolutely beautiful trucks, back then you knew you were driving a truck,,,, awesome 👍❤️ it thank you
I miss seeing all those old trucks out working, massive cb antennas, mechanical diesels. I remember when mack ultraliners were a common sight now hardly see them, still quite a few r models getting around, long live the old iron
Amen to that. Some beaut restoration projects happening around n.z these days to go along with the classics already restored.
Pioneers of NZ trucking, those trucks are legend. Old but Gold
Thanks for posting. Those V8 Superliners were an epic truck! Glad there are one or two still around including a few CLs and Ultraliners.
No automatic transmission's there😎. Great video, thanks for posting
Just driven that road today, those trucks and companies bring back many memory’s. My Dad passed away earlier this year and was a truckie from mid 70’s to 2005 when he retired.
Who did he drive for? Got some more footage to post in the weeks to come
Had his own truck, was with Klissers which became Vogel’s then he sold and was in freight Falcon Forwarders then Daily Freight, then Jarret Sands that became Roadstar
Thank You so much ,I love seeing those old trucks.Keep up the great work
Thank you for posting this im ex milk hauler in Wisconsin miss driving trucks do miss the bs that came with it
No worries Andrew. Got a few more to post at some stage.
Wow so cool seeing those awesome longs
Units
Brings back memory’s of growing up in Taupo
Mid to late 80’s
Great times not just the boring freightliners
Kenworths or western stars
That’s all nz trucking seems to be
Back also when nz was a great place to live
When trucks were real trucks
And drivers real drivers
Not the Steerers we have today
With their stupid yellow H’s
Great vid thanks for the memories
Brutha!, that was fantastic man great camera and sound, gotta love the V8 Mack! Haha thankyou brutha I'm gonna watch this again thru the stereo so the rest of the street can enjoy the Sweet sound of an E9 climbing a hill 😄
Damn Storms old girl sounded awesome
Remember that hill climb some of the Owner drivers ST Hema black & red v8 Mack , JD Douglas blue & white v8 Mack exhaust note nothin like IT 😎
500 V8s were certainly the glory days for Mack.
The 525 was still good, then after Renault and Volvo takeovers , it's been all downhill from there.
holy smokes my oldman at 6:34 jeez wouldve been young there
NOSTALGIA
Old school cool
You got that right
wow that is amazing footage !
Days of a set speed slow speed going up ,when what you had is all you got ,but you got there ,a work out for both the truck and driver

A few here could confirm above but think I have most covered, my uncle and cousin used to OD for Freightways Napier (Rob Fraser RIP & Bruce Fraser) this was there main highway to points further North on return trips ie Napier to Auckland or Rotorua etc. Good times and when the industry was hard & raw.

What happened to Moore and Chapman?
They morphed into central transport

John moore loves watching these told him get the mokos they showed him now he watches all the time and the moore & chapman trucks ha ha ha
This is fantastic, every professional in every truck on their side of the white line,now we have these imported drivers from India collapsing this profession.
