About 14 years ago my mum sold a 6x6 Studebaker tipper to a bloke.
My father had recently died.
He shows up with a semi trailer already fully loaded with 3 or 4 Marmon 6x6s one on top of the other.
None had winches.
It was the only time I have ever seen 6x6 Marmons.
They were in reasonable condition, but not much left of the original rear body work.
They had come from Tumut way near the snowy Mts.
He wanted me to load the Studebaker on top of the Marmons which were already stacked with a large forklift we had.
He got angry with me when I wanted no part of it and damaging the vehicles.
He ended up hiring a crane.
They went to Queensland somewhere.
Very rare trucks for Australia.
