Default Now just one moment...

Not long after this photo was taken. He (very aggressively) tore the leg off a chicken...

The chicken was carefully cooked under sterile conditions in accordance NSW health regulations and served with warmed cream....

Default Now this is fun

Have finally managed to find some sides, get them repaired by Andy Fulton and have started the process of fitting them to the truck.

Again I have been given some invaluable help from John Mackie.

Thanks H for the lend of the trailer and Bruce for the pallets. These projects dont get done without help from everyone.

Default Great Work - Love the drop side body

Hi Tony

Great Work, how is the truck driving now that you have a some miles on it? The Australian drop side body sure added versatility to the truck so much easier to load than the standard cargo bodies what surprises me is how long it was before this was adopted by other countries.

I'm really curious how warm does the cab get on the Ford version?

Keep the great work and enjoy seeing your progress.

Cheers Phil
