Default Generous to say the least

Robert,

Is there anything you'd like in exchange for the winch? Its an extremely generous offer & heck yeah! I'd love to have it!! Sincerely thank you very much!

Max You've already been more help then I could ever expect of anyone & quite frankly my truck would not be at the stage its up to without the generous amount of time you've provided. To say nothing of the parts that youve GIVEN me without any expectation of return!

Fortunately I do have something for you - to be revealed at another date.

There are other fellahs on here who've also been extremely generous with time, info & photos. You can see who they are from reading this thread!!!

I am stunned by the level of goodwill & generosity on this site. It truly does demonstrate that there are decent people still in world!!
I'm sure the fellahs who have protected our freedom in all conflicts would be grinning from ear to ear if they could see this forum.

Hi Tony, you are welcome to it but at that price you get to unbolt it while I watch and learn It will be good to double the number of MLUers that have visited here and you can study Keith's blitz as well. I'll have the FEL ready for the lifting
PS bring Howard along and we wont need the FEL

Now if I come as well do I get to take Keiths Blitz back home to Queensland with me?

Well the history and value of the F60L would increase with some 'Authentic' Wartime bullet holes in it but we just need to not tell folk it was WW3.5 and not WW2 bullet holes.

But Robert I thought your place was high on a hill? So I could see myself sitting on the back of the F60L like Granny Clampett from the Bevely Hillbilly's speeding away from Keithy downhill

Mind you when I run out of downhill bits and Keithy caught up I could expect some
