The new and old credence is
nopics
There are not enough pics of old dumpers in repair or in action.
Welcome back from a fellow dumper (mine is waiting repairs, simply no space and money at the moment).
Certainly if its a tractor - trailer rig. What about this. Combo's are ok but for the nominating picture as contestant the trailer has to be empty. Afterwards, during campaigning, you can put whatever you want on it, and show that as campaigning.
It is true that the combination of truck trailer AND attracting - interesting load on top of the trailer gives an unfair advantage and its not clear where you are voting for.
I would say, the Tatra with the UN container attached is still just on the good side of the edge. The UN container...
No whining please.
Some more pics of the UN container on the Tatra.
The interior is largely original, including the fuel heater that gets the fuel from the jerrycan. In front of the heater and power equalizer will be a movable bed so the container can be used as mobile home.
Just...
Maybe people missed the thread due to the migration to a new provider.
Well, the Tatra migrated to a new provider as well, to start a second youth. So please step up to the plate people and give Rusty Loads Tatra some votes for effort and aesthetics
We'll try, need a few more votes for the Tatra; we really need to honor this double foreigner effort.
A next career as movie prop, with guns on top and moving nuclear waste.
Next time some pics on the UN container.
Do we get extra points for promoting the voting thread?
Arrival in Canada from the Czech Republic; persistence pays off.
*** but it took a lot of time, geting paper work sorted out, and then nerves about the roll-on roll-off and transport across the ocean. In the end, it worked out OK
Some pics of the Tatra while still in the Czech Republic. In front, you can see a new cabin laying around.
Also a short video about the army Tatra versions.

Note that Rusty Load's truck has a heavy bumper in front, while most of the terrain army versions do...
I already voted, will start campaigning with additional pics soon. It is about time that a non-US truck gets the nomination, and its fitting after the effort Rusty Loads put into getting the truck from the Czech Republic to Canada, and then drive TWO THOUSAND miles to participate in the Georgia...
Rusty Loads
You did not talk with him at the rally?
He bought the truck in the Czech Republic, I helped a very little bit (really not much) with importing it to Canada, he uses it also for movie appearances as a truck of the "bad guys".
Let's try the KOLOS again
Almost missed the deadline again, busy with projects and restoring my PC after HDD failure.
Let's try Evan's Tatra Kolos again, now with a picture from the Georgia Rally where he drove to from Ontario, Canada! (Swamp Donkey, hope you don't mind I am using your picture...
I know. I was with him end of September, when I was still trying to make it to the Rally. Evan was supposed to have a meeting in the USA just a few hundred miles away from Durham and planned to go there with the Tatra. I mentioned the GA rally and suggested he should leave the Tatra there and...
Czech Kolos to enter the competition
I withdraw my Abearican truck and submit Rusty Loads Tatra Kolos 815, time the American MVs get some competition from abroad. Hopefully I will get a better front picture before the voting starts.
