Gippsland Vehicle CollectionVulcan Truck, 1922 Vulcan Tray Truck
... 1922 Vulcan Tray Truck...Vulcan...Manufactured by The Vulcan Motor and Engineering Company at Southport Lancashire, England. ...Manufactured by The Vulcan Motor and Engineering Company at Southport Lancashire, England. ...Manufactured by The Vulcan Motor and Engineering Company at Southport Lancashire, England. It's early history is unknown. It was resurected from an old disused brick kiln in Penrith, N. S.W. where it was in a rusty disused state. Restoration was completed about 1990., and included replacing many missing items, icluding having a reproduction 'Blacksmith' radiator mascot.This truck is significant as it is representative of the early type of hand cranked (no starter motor) Vulcan trucks used in the Maffra district, particularly in the dairying industry. Allthough commonly used in the period, it is fairly rare, as not many have survived. It has cast iron wheels, with solid rubber tyres, at a time when most vehicles were using pneumatic tyres.vulcan, vulcan truck, vintage truck, old truck -
