Andrew Transport Mercedes/MAN super spreaders

Fred Andrews of Riversdale in Southland was a great one for experimentation, and become renown for his work with 8×8 MAN and Mercedes-Benz spreaders.

Often fitted with triple wheels on the rear and doubles on the steering axles, these trucks cut a formidable sight on the steep country they worked around Southland.

If any of the operators want to contribute more info on these trucks – contact me here – and I’ll add it to the text block.
