Fan favourite truck to be raffled

Australia’s largest transport and logistics insurance experts, NTI, is raffling the truck, affectionately named Bonnie, to raise funds for medical research.

NTI Chief Executive Officer Tony Clark said Bonnie was the seventh truck to be restored and raffled by the business, with ticket sales totalling $2 million for Motor Neurone Disease research over six years.

“Motorists may recognise the black dual cab 4x4 as one of the first vintage trucks modified by NTI,” he said.

“Bonnie has been the organisation’s promo truck and has gained a large following after appearing at events across the country over the past two and a half years.”

NTI Chief Customer Officer, Janelle Greene, said it was truly a one-of-a-kind vehicle, and it was no surprise that it’s a fan favourite.
