Dan & Dolina Truckin

Welcome

A little bit of history

This Peterbilt truck was made in

Denton, Texas, U.S.A.

• The truck was manufactured in 1990.
• It has a 420 Caterpillar engine combined with a 13 speed gearbox.
• When the truck was new it hauled oil related goods from America to Canada.
• Following this period it was bought by an owner driver called Ken Surgrue.
• Later, Ken Surgrue had to purchase new trucks for his business and was keeping this Peterbilt as a hobby.
• Eventually, we bought the truck in Ottowa on 3rd January 2006.
• Our Peterbilt was taken to Halifax, Nova Scotia, where it was then shipped to Liverpool.
• A low loader transported it from Liverpool to Inverness.
• Upon collection in Inverness we had to replace the chrome pipes as they had been removed for shipping.
• Invaluable help was given by Colin Sutherland who drove the truck part of the way home.

Our Peterbilt is available for Weddings,

Photo Shoots, Galas and Highland Games, etc..etc.
