Tsunami: Hozzi Transport’s Kenworth T950

Words: Warren Aitken · Photography: Warren Aitken

Regular readers will be more than familiar with Brisbane’s Hozzi Transport. In fact, anyone driving around Brisbane can’t help but be awestruck by their original looking trucks.

Their newest addition to the expanding fleet is this 2002 Kenworth T950, named Tsunami. Hozzi Transport are the third owners of this C16 powered T950, which started its life as a logging truck before being bought by SRV.

Already a head turner with custom purple LED strips fitted to compliment the stunning paint job. ‘Tsunami’ has recently been through a ‘Truckin’ Stainless’ makeover. The fuel tanks were wrapped and vinyl wraps applied to either end. A ‘TS’ visor was added and new stainless bug deflector. The stainless artwork on the side was a Truckin’ Stainless solution for fixing distracting damage to the bonnet.

Stainless strips were added to the bottom of the doors, window choppers added and the air intakes wrapped. Battery box lids and the steps are mirrored stainless and 8” straight pipes. A rear louver finished off the exterior nicely.

Since this shoot the interior has been stripped down by Truckin’ Stainless with a new wooden floor with stainless edging, billet gear stick, new seat bases and steering wheel finished off with full chrome accessories on the dash and door. This is one ‘Tsunami’ people are happy to see.

Rear Vision: where are they now?

Do you know where this truck is today, or have an update on its story? We would love to hear from its owners, drivers or anyone who helped build it.
