That picture deserves a prize
Hi Jan
That is a prize winning picture, deserves to be published in all the Military Magazines as something for all collectors to aspire too. If you don't mind I'd like to use you pictures in our local clubs Newsletter for April issue. Do you happen to know the overall height was? I've already share your pictures with one of our local collectors who regularly hauls his APCs to shows he is green with envy. He has the military flat bed for his tractor but the last time he used it he was hauling the two APCs and an M151 out to a show in the mid west and got pulled over into a weight station and was over weight by the weight of M151. Fine unload the M151 back to the scales, no too much weight on the rear axles, fine move one of the APCs forward still not right move the other one forward. Of course each time they had rechain everything. Last trip to the scale everything OK and it starts to rain no top on the M151, so the driver gets all of the rain gear on and they are off to drive 600 more miles home. That's why he replace the military trailer with the nice shinny aluminum one in the picture. Cheers Phil

Loading gun tractor
This was the scene in Eltham this afternoon as Euan loaded the No9 CGT and Wiles Jr cooker. He has already unloaded and is now on his way back to collect 25 pdrs and limbers.

Getting into it
Yesterday arrived after lunch, got into shooting and did an interview with Bob Schutt who brought this ultra-rare armoured version of the F15 built for the US forces in Australia known as the SC1.
He was kind enough to let me drive it too.  Another S.E.G.  Thanks Euan for the pic.

Test Drive
Quote:
Did any one take a shot at you..to see if the armour was real or not...??? Could have been a lot more interesting to run the gauntlet of Bren and Sten gun fire from a bunch of your liquored up mates.. Sure would have pissed the guy off to scratch up his nice "Down Town " paint job.. That would be the last time he offered you a test drive... You look pretty spiffy in the drivers seat anyway... Good job.. Alex Is this you screaming in this video..?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StFtslWvIk4
