The P9 was from Port Hardy,not Powell River The bottom 2 pics are P10.More pics taken yesterday. If the pic isnt enough,Theres in cab and video walk around on my youtube-skadill channel of this truck
Skadill; Nice Pacific trucks. I think I've seen the P9 before. Do you know owner of trucks? How about HDX in background - do you have any pics and info of her. I am just curious
Love the KW Rad on her
Hayes no1- I filmed full video walk arounds of every piece and all trucks photoed,will put a bit everyday up,I've got a lot of pictures to share ongoing here,but dont want to flood the system here with skadill stuff, Going tostretch it out and splice it in on topic as it goes with the flow of others material.Gotta say this is a great place to hang out here,and see people make connections to their old gear,and places and faces they worked with,of years gone by.Thanks so much to everyone who posts in each forestry thread,it is much appreciated and makes for great evening escapes into the digital and pixel forest here.

Skadill, you must post pics of that LRSW Mack with the remnants of the spar saddle still on it. It would be interesting if someone remembered it. The guy that owned those Pacifics above must have got a good deal on orange paint!Originally Posted by skadill
Left over Tahsis orange?
This reminds me of this old orange P16 with a Pacific made preload water tank - an old Tahsis truck I think
Looks like "Standard" Pacific mirror brackets Or were these the new upgraded ones we been hearing about???
Drove that truck lots loaded it many more times has a fifth wheel on it makes the bunk hard as hell to turn. The mirrors may be ugly but they do let you see behind. Wonder what they did with after they contracted Zeballos out. We got the line horse parked next to it and the Ford water tanker on the other side.
our old pacific 400 big cam 2 original engine 13 speed triple lock tridrive
075; I guess you are referring to HD line horse at right and white Ford left of P16 - in back another HD - she got a sander box. Pics were shot in Zeballos summer 2005.
The line horse was the first truck I drove when I broke in it was H43 back then and it was a preloader, The other truck with the watertank was H44 another preload. When I started in Zeballos both those trucks were fairly new, and painted on the side of the watertank It said this Unit cost $44,000. I jumped from the top of the load unto the bullboards above the cab and slid off the bullboard unto the hood then the fender and ended up on the ground and hurt my knee pretty good and all Bob the driver could say is "Hey you scratched my paint" if I could of walked I would have kicked him.
Notice the old style fenders.
