BLING Like a mobile billboard, it’s hard to miss Airlie Beach Hotel owner Michael McFee’s stunning Kenworth T909 B-double combo. It’s enough to whet the appetite for a schooner and parmigiana at the popular tourist destination. Warren Aitken writes

“That truck ticks all the boxes; it has all the right stuff in it.”

Chicken parmigiana! Yes you read that correctly, I’ve just started a story on one of Australia’s coolest Kenworth’s with the words ‘chicken parmigiana’. No doubt you’re wondering why? Well, I guess that’s a fair question. It would make a really cool story if I was to BS you and say it’s been done on a dare, however I’m sure my editor would have already rewritten the intro if that was the case.

No, I’ve used those two words because I stumbled upon this standout truck while enjoying one of the best chicken parmigianas you could ever have! I know that’s a big call. Australians are pretty serious about many things: their footy, the Melbourne Cup, habitually losing to New Zealanders at rugby and their chicken parmigiana. So I don’t speak lightly when I say, sitting down at the Airlie Beach Hotel and enjoying a 400g parmy was unbelievable.

When I’d finished it (and you better believe I finished it), not only was I about two inches short of being perfectly round but I’d also managed to catch sight of a stunning 10 tonne taxi that happened to be parked in the driveway. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to learn more. So off I went to investigate.

Now, instead of writing a food blog about parmigiana, we’ve ended up here, with this story. Allow me to fill you in.

Understandably, after a tough 2020, my better half wanted a break away, surprisingly with me in tow. So, with holiday destinations somewhat limited in 2020 we decided to try out Airlie Beach. The Airlie Beach Hotel to be precise; perched right on the waterfront in one of Australia’s top tourist towns. It seems the most unlikely place for me to stumble on a stunning Kenworth T909, but that’s exactly what happened.

So there we were, sitting outside having dinner. In my case it was the chicken parmy I’ve already waffled on about, obviously with cheesy garlic bread. Suddenly my ears sensed the sound of a rumbling engine; those sweet smooth tones of a Cummins X15. I popped out the back of the hotel and there she was in all its bug-covered glory – the Airlie Beach Hotel T909. Even parked in the carpark of a top-notch hotel in a top-notch holiday location, the Kenworth stood out like a pregnant pole vaulter. I must admit I was smitten straight away.

Like a starstruck One Direction fan I lined up to have a word with the driver. The truck draws plenty of tourists every time it pulls in and that night was no exception. A few holidaymakers who had been walking by had been blinded by the bling and came over to photograph the truck. Once it was my turn, I was pleasantly surprised to find out the driver was a fellow kiwi, Bradley Gallagher.

I expressed my interest in catching up and doing a few photos – and that’s where it all began. Now that we all know how we got here, let’s learn about what and who drives arguably Australia’s coolest T909.

Heading north

The 2019 Kenworth T909 and Vawdrey B-double set is the pride and joy of Michael McFee, the owner of the Airlie Beach Hotel. While Mick’s main game is in hospitality, he is no stranger to the transport industry. His school holidays were spent travelling the roads between Sydney and Canberra with his grandfather, who carted gas. Michael remembers tagging along in his pop’s old ACCO before moving up to a Mack Super-Liner.

So Mick had diesel in his veins from a young age. But instead of following in his pop’s work boots he headed along the path of his father who worked tirelessly in the hospitality industry. During his growth within hospitality, Mick ended up shifting from the ACT up to sunny Queensland, or more precisely, Airlie Beach, where he bought the Reef Gateway Hotel.

After the devastation of Cyclone Debbie in 2017, which left the Whitsundays decimated, he moved onto the Airlie Beach Hotel in a bid to revive it to its former glory and to help kickstart the local community. If the attention to detail on his truck isn’t already an indication, you soon learn Mick is all about doing it right. He rebuilt the hotel with a Vegas-like bottle shop out the back and a top-quality restaurant out the

“It’s the trailers that let people know what he’s selling.”

front called The Pub. Currently, he is still revamping the 80-plus rooms on site.

In order to keep the workers and patrons fed and watered, Mick was bringing a fair few supplies up from Brisbane – his closest main distribution centre. At his previous hotel he had experienced several third-party issues that not only delayed, but often damaged the products he was ordering. He approached a family friend, Geoff Richards, to see if he could cart his product up.

“I spoke to dad’s old friend Geoff about getting his company to cart my stuff,” Mick tells me, knowing that at least he could rely on a quality service. “Geoff said, for the amount I’m moving, I should just buy my own truck.” So that’s what he did.

Kenworth connections

The first truck he bought was for his previous hotel, the Reef Gateway, and it was an eye-catching Mack Super-Liner, brighter that a 10-year-old spelling bee champion. The truck is amazing and can still be seen up and down the coast, supplying the Reef Gateway Hotel.

However, when it came to a new truck for the Airlie Beach hotel, Mick left all that to his driver at the time, Brendon Murphy.

“Brendon was a full blown Kenworth man,” Mick jokingly informs me. “So I just chose the colour and paid the bill.”

Brendon’s Kenworth connections came to the fore, directing Mick to Ben Sparrow at Brown & Hurley in Yatala who was tasked with the job of fulfilling the long list of requirements.

“It’s very cool to be part of a build like this,” Ben says as he broke down the almost year-long project. “That truck ticks all the boxes; it has all the right stuff in it.”

The truck emerged out of Kenworth’s Bayswater facility in Melbourne in the requested colour – and that was about it. Everything else was added afterward, including a revamp for the entire sound system, thanks to the specialist sound team at Brown and Hurley’s Yatala branch. They added four sub woofers, a couple of amps and replaced all of the factory speakers with upgraded equipment. Ben applauds the work done there. “It’s all upgraded speakers but installed in the factory positions, so you can’t tell. Great work!”

Right from the start, Brendon set the rig to have a clean, crisp look. The truck left the factory without any badges, and the bottom of the sleeper is painted to match the truck rather than traditional stainless.

Once it was out of the factory the truck was sent to Ryan Northcott at Bling HQ in Brisbane. “He’s the best in the business,” Brendon tells me. Ben also heaped praise: “The quality of the work speaks for itself.” They are not wrong. Brendon and Mick both sat down with Ryan to discuss the look they wanted and both reckon he had absolutely nailed it when the truck was handed back.

The fuel tanks and AdBlue tanks were wrapped together to give the truck an old school clean, four-tank appearance. The custom-made rear bar was one of Brendon’s favourite parts. Custom-made step boxes were made to suit Brendon’s vision as well.

Those are the big talking points; there’s so much added to this truck it’s almost impossible to list. Bling HQ nailed the look perfectly with just enough shine to make it stand out without being garish.

By the time it rolled out of Bling HQ it was already a standout truck. Then it got hooked up to its top-of-the-line Vawdry B-double set. Talk about wow factor. Mick actually let me into a little of his marketing genius in regard to this.

Above Left: Mick insisted on a little artwork on the rear of the fantastic B-double set. Boy does it work!

Marketing tool

The simplicity of the truck is there to emphasise the trailers. The whole unit is a rolling billboard for him, but it’s the trailers that let people know what he’s selling. I had asked him why there was no company logo or anything on the truck and he replied: “You don’t want people looking at the floors or walls, you want them focused on the product.”

I admit I had to listen to that quote a couple of time before Mick’s wisdom sunk in.

Mick sees the importance of good quality gear on the road,

“It’s very cool to be part of a build like this.”

Top: Bling HQ had to work pretty hard to get more lights on the 909 than the Awesome Airlie Beach Hotel and exactly what it can do for a company’s image. It’s not hard to be smarter than me, but this man leaves me licking windows in the principal’s office.

So with the truck on the road I guess you are wondering, does it actually do anything other than just look friggin’ amazing. Normally I would agree with everyone and say, it doesn’t look like it. However, I did find it when I met current driver Bradley up in Airlie Beach and it was plastered in bugs. So it does work.

Kiwi boy Brad is no stranger to a pimped-up Kenworth. He’s earned his stripes keeping the shine on some of the coolest Kenworths around, notably when previously piloting rigs for SRV and Greg McDonald. His reputation for professionalism and dedication was what earnt him the recommendation for the spot when Mick was looking for a new driver.

The big 909 loads up with the weekly supplies out of a couple of locations around Brisbane and heads straight to Airlie Beach. In a pre-COVID world the truck would be doing the run twice a week. Like most of Australia though, Airlie Beach has seen a drastic downturn in tourists and as such Brad is currently on one run a week. The tall poppy side of me would love to spend some time taking digs at Brad now for only working ‘part-time’ but truth be told, the little bugger still makes himself useful.

Once the big rig gets up to Airlie Beach, Brad has to split up and unload as the hotel is not really B-double friendly. Once the A-trailer is unloaded it’s put to the side where Brad and the staff set to washing it. Then the B-trailer is brought in and the same process is repeated. The truck gets taken around to the bottle store in order to make use of the tank water (oh yeah, they are that fussy). Once it’s all shined up ready for the return trip the unit will be put back together out at Cannonvale.

Like a good little worker bee though, Brad then joins the rest of the crew in unstacking and organising the weeks’ worth of product into storage and cold rooms as required. It’s very much a team mentality that steams from the Airlie Beach crew, so much so I almost wanted to offer some help myself. Obviously I didn’t; apparently ‘our holiday’ does not include cleaning a truck and stocking shelves. But the thought was there.

Well, that’s about all the information I have gathered. It seems everyone involved in this project – the salesman, the driver, the Bling man and even the guys that help keep it looking 11 out of 10 are just driven by pride. It’s a wonderful thing to see. Pride in your job, pride in your workmates, pride in the company and definitely pride in the truck.

It’s always hard to wrap up a story sometimes, never knowing the right words to say. I’m going to just let the pictures of this stunning Kenworth say more than I can and instead leave you with a solid piece of advice: whatever you do, when you’re in Airlie Beach go to The Pub and try the damn chicken parmigiana. You will not regret it!

CASH FLOW TO FUEL YOUR BUSINESS AND KEEP YOU ON THE ROAD

It’s no secret that owner-drivers and transport operators are burdened with more everyday expenses and fixed costs than other businesses. Innovative funding options such as invoice finance can help operators generate immediate working capital and allow them to focus on their business needs and growth opportunities

Small transport operators have many expense commitments that put strain on their cash flow. Factors such as vehicle lease payments or purchase costs, fuel payments, driver wages, rent, regular servicing and vehicle repairs all contribute to relatively higher fixed costs compared to other businesses.

It’s a tough market, not just due to the ongoing pandemic. Transport operators face varying daily challenges – uncertainty of income because of long payment terms or late paying customers and fluctuating cash flow that can cause stress in managing day-to-day finance and fixed costs. In some cases, upfront capital expenditure on a new business that might not generate revenue right from the outset can be an issue.

For smaller operators, the road can be more challenging as they might not have much margin as a buffer, with minimal difference between money coming in and money going out; and if they are reliant on customers who take longer to pay, it really hurts their bottom line. The risk of even just a few customers failing can be catastrophic for a smaller transport business.

In such cases, useful cash flow solutions such as invoice finance can assist, allowing businesses to draw down the value of invoices they are owed by their customers. This provides an up-front cash injection rather than the typical wait for the invoices to be paid.

Invoice finance can: • provide a line of credit by using unpaid customer invoices rather than personal property, so operators can keep the family home out of the picture • outsource sending of statements and collection calls, which can help smaller operators when they are on the road and/or are time-poor • provide a flexible working capital solution that grows in line with your business, so there is no need to constantly renegotiate with the bank.

This is where lenders like ScotPac Business Finance come in.

Established in 1988, ScotPac is Australia and New Zealand’s largest non-bank lender for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and a leading provider of working capital solutions, specialising in invoice, asset and trade finance facilities. With over 30 years’ experience in the transport sector, ScotPac aims to improve cash flow to generate funds that all transport operators, particularly SMEs, rely on, as well as support the purchase of vehicles to expand the fleet. With offices across Australia, they have local teams on the ground, ready to help with a fast turnaround.

Invoice finance

ScotPac’s Invoice Finance can help operators smooth out cash flow by advancing up to 95 per cent of the invoice value when invoices are raised, so you have certainty around being able to meet supplier demands or other financial commitments.

One of the biggest benefits is that invoice finance (also known as debtor finance) is secured against business receivables, so does not require real estate security, which keeps your business borrowing separate and protects your personal assets, such as the family home. For younger operators and owner-drivers, who do not own a property, this is a smart way to access funding.

Many operators in the transport sector already use ScotPac’s invoice finance to manage seasonal highs and lows and keep money at hand. If your customer operates in a seasonal business, invoice finance can ensure that cash availability matches with demand during peak periods. Moreover, cash can be brought forward during the slower times when payment times often stretch out, causing working capital issues; letting businesses keep on top of their cash flow year-round.

ScotPac’s flexible solutions provide options that let you choose between self-managed solutions, where you decide how much funding and when you need it, or endto-end services that provide receivables and collections support. It also offers smaller operators peace of mind against bad debt arising, so that customer failure does not result in the collapse of your business. You have the choice between fixed-term contracts or no-minimumterm contracts, to ensure the funding is tailored to your needs.

So, how does invoice finance work? Once you have an invoice finance facility, drawing upon it is easy: • you send invoices to your customers • the financier will pay up to 95 per cent of the value of approved invoices • the remaining 5 per cent (minus a small fee) becomes available when the invoice is paid by your customer.

With platforms like ScotPac Cash Connector this process can become even easier with direct integrations into your cloud accounting, making it the easy way to manage your funding and make bookkeeping a breeze.

Asset finance

ScotPac’s Asset Finance helps fund equipment and vehicles to help operators of all sizes expand their business. With flexible terms, ScotPac can help build your fleet by: • funding up to 100 per cent of the purchase costs of an asset with no capital outlay • helping with the purchase of second-hand or new equipment, from local or overseas providers with no upfront payments • allowing operators to access capital they have tied up within existing assets • offering quick approvals – in some cases, within two hours.

No matter the need, ScotPac understands transport and has experts ready to help. For more information, call ScotPac on 1300 781 642 or visit www.scotpac.com.au/transport.

Dennis Kelly’s ’88 Mack Super-Liner

Bulldog brand enthusiast Dennis Kelly has immortalised the almost forgotten Australian pastoralist and land owner Sir Sidney Kidman in the form of a stunning, customised 1988 Mack Super-Liner. Mack maestro Glen Beutel, PJs Custom Spraypainting and Truck Mechanical in Brisbane all played a big part in the whole project, giving the ‘Cattle King’ Super-Liner a major makeover.

Steve Earl’s Scania R 620

Earls Express has some of the best looking rigs running on and off road around the country, including their eye-catching Scania R 620. The stunning purple paintwork, pink splashes and lettering on this and other Earls Express trucks and trailers indicates this is a business that wants to create an impression – a strong, dependable one.

Rob Starcic’s Classic Kenworth W925

Although not a fleet owner in a true sense, truck enthusiast Rob Starcic was swept away when he first laid eyes on this stunning Kenworth W925 with it 64-inch sleeper at a truck show. Rob kept the truck’s original colour but wrapped the tanks, capped the ends and had new battery boxes and toolboxes made so both sides were identical.

Glen Pilbeam’s 1985 Mack Super-Liner

On the lookout for a suitable rebuild project, the Pilbeam family travelled north from Heyfield in Victoria to Dalby, Queensland, discovering a 1985 Mack Super-Liner well past its peak. However, after undergoing a thorough transformation over two years, including a lengthy stay at Royan Truck and Trailer Repairs in Melbourne, the truck was brought back from a slow death to better than new.

Frank and Christine Commisso’s Kenworth T909

Frank and Christine Commisso have been through the tough times, but their hard work has paid off, resulting in the addition of their stunning flagship truck – a Kenworth T909. With Kyzer Kustoms in Shepparton chipping in, the T909 boasts 400 lights, low mount guards and stainless air cleaners. It regularly hauls a Freighter tautliner A-trailer and Maxi-Cube B-trailer.

Peppi Inverno’s Kenworth Legend 900

For any operator of a small fleet, buying a brand new truck is a big investment, especially so when it’s a limited edition Kenworth Legend 900. But for Gippsland couple Peppi and Danielle Inverno, it was a venture that has solidified the family unit. While it’s a show-stopper, the 900 is also an everyday working truck.

Cromack Transport’s Mercedes-Benz 2658

In a fleet of various makes and models, a superbly presented Mercedes-Benz 2658 is setting high standards in reliability and fuel economy for Cromack Transport in northern NSW. Although the only Benz in the family business, Graeme and Jeff Cromack say it may not be the last as the big Benz continues to notch impressive results.

Wallace International’s 2010 Western Star 4800FX

Wallace International boasts a stunningly-presented fleet of big rigs, but none more striking than the company’s 2010 Western Star 4800FX. The Cummins ISX-powered Star has clocked up more than 500,00km but sports the looks and sounds of a truck half its age. Notably, the company’s transport manager Gary Perry is a fan of the Western Star brand’s enduring appearance.

Ryan Demasi’s 2006 Kenworth T904

Western Australia’s Ryan Demasi went from laying turf to owning ‘The Incredible Hulk’, one of the most stunning Kenworth T904s in the country. No longer the quiet Cummins workhorse, the 2006 “green monster” has had an upgrade with new piston linings, rings, pumps … everything got slapped on, including a huge Cat turbo.

Detour Logistics’ Kenworth K200

When Volvo discontinued its XXL cabs in Australia, Detour Logistics’ boss Colin Beer looked to Kenworth’s ‘big cab’ K200. Regular driver Mal Whiley appreciates the K200’s roominess which, along with the trailers, has clocked up around 520,000km. Powered by a Cummins 600hp engine, the K200 has had its tanks painted and, with its custom guards, looks the goods.
