Some carrier bits pass through Eltham
 
On their way to Yass.

John Hedges and partner Fiona arrived today after having purchased a heavy trailer load of carrier parts from South Gippsland.

On arrival there was a need to redistribute the load for the long drive to Yass tomorrow.

Trouble was there was something rather heavy to be transferred from the ute to the trailer:

The solution?

Can't go past the good old Ford FGT...

Problem solved.

Excellent! Before you know it, you'll realise the FGT is much more practical with a crane on the back and you'll never restore it back to its original configuration . . . ;)

Practical
 
Have to admit it is useful like this - of course the crane will fit onto another CMP...

Looks like some very useful bits there. What was there condition like?

Oxide
 
There was a certain amount of ferric oxide, but a fair amount of the track should be usable, and the wheels are all rolling free.
