50 years of NG: RoadStars celebrates a classic
Classic vehicles
In 1973, a success story began with the new generation series. A small selection is shown here.
The one-of-a-kind.
The Grillmayers' NG 1632 is a lucky find for the family: The former test truck is unique.
An Italian rarity.
His grandfather and father relied on the new generation of towing vehicles for their haulage company. Dennis Rekate has restored one just like that. And with a very unusual engine.
On a large scale.
Besides doing tree maintenance work, the Weckler company also hires out elevating work platforms. A custom-built truck based on the 2636 A 6x6 has been part of the vehicle fleet for more than 30 years.
A long journey for the classic long-distance haulage truck.
When Holger Hahn bought his second-hand 1633, he more or less knew how much work lay ahead. But there were two things he had no idea would happen: He met the truck’s first driver and got a brand new engine for it.
Late rarity.
One of the last NGs is Wolfgang Reich’s 2635. This vehicle was bought and lovingly restored by the collector.

Und jedesmal werden dabei aufs Neue Erinnerungen an die eigenen vergangenen Fahrerjahre (seit 1983, u. a. mit den gleichen Fahrzeugtypen) geweckt 👍👏
