Harry, wrong wheels ....noted and that is a nice 6 wheeler. Have a different set of ramp images to post but they are buried somewhere "safe" for the time being.
Tony carrying on from Ric's comment please note the attached images. MLU1 is an earlier pic showing the stowage areas from the rear and MLU2 is the almost finished item. It is of course feasible that the ramp as such would possibly fit in with the spare barrel however the spring assembly on the barrel is large, the barrel is very heavy and it would have been packed with something to stop lateral movement when the vehicle was in motion. Another question to be answered. I would say that the suggestion remains open to debate for the time being! MLU2 is a rear shot of the Tractor at a recent display. It traveled on a Main Roads permit. The vehicle is now registered - heavy rigid etc. And thanks for the compliment Ric. Rod
