Now I can actually get forklift in to the shed and get taller vehicles in and out without letting the tyres down
Oh my...."if you have an empty shed, it will soon fill up with stuff". "If you have a shed with an entrance big enough for tanks........ (fill in the blank space)

Nice work Andrew.

Unfortunately as all sheds go ,they are never big enough and far from empty as shed is allready full with about the same or more amount of gear out the back

That's a shame... what's the chassis number? Is it a C15A chassis (8444) or is it an 8440 chassis?

And no, new unallocated bodies did not have an ARN. Best to check anyway!

So the Holden plate is missing from the left side of the cab as well?
