1961 Thames Trader
Another gem from the 2015 Kilmore Agricultural Show. 1961 Mark 1 Ford Thames Trader forward control tray truck, registered on a club permit CH9205. The Thames Trader was Ford’s first British designed and built heavy commercial vehicle. The chrome “4D” badge shows that this is equipped with the smaller 3.6L diesel engine.

DeSoto Emblem
The bonnet emblem on the 1930 CF DeSoto 8 at the Bunyip Agricultural Show 2026. The Chrysler brand, DeSoto, was named after the 16th-century Spanish explorer and conquistador, Hernando de Soto. The DeSoto emblem is a stylised version of the DeSoto family coat of arms.

La Salle Rocketman
This is the hood ornament on the DeSoto 8 at the Bunyip Agricultural Show. Interestingly, this is a La Salle “Rocketman” ornament. La Salle was a General Motors brand that sat just below the Cadillac. The La Salle brand was discontinued in the early 1940s when it was realised that it was cannibalising Buick and Cardillac sales, the marques either side of it. It would be interesting to know why a GM ornament ended up on a competitors car.
