I guess no one was particularly concerned about road safety at the time. Those fellows probably wouldn't recognize Australia now.

Reading the reports of the Darwin sales, with the huge number of bidders, not many bargains were to be had. Special flights were laid on to fly the bidders up to Darwin. You would be better off staying down South and buying at the closer sales, the prices were pegged anyway. https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/a...osals%20trucks https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/a...osals%20trucks https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/a...osals%20trucks https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/a...osals%20trucks
