The HAR-01 in post #12 (and the 12 Cab Ford) are no longer at that site. I has been some years, so I don't know if they were sold or scrapped.

The owner from that time has passed away, and I don't know if it's been passed on to a family member or sold to a new owner.

The site has been comprehensively picked clean (or rehabilitated, as they say) of all heavy items, ie the trucks and lots of smaller stuff like spring packs, diffs, drums/hubs, transmissions that were scattered about. The only remnants left are lighter gauge items like corrugated iron water tanks and a couple of severely corroded car bodies. That would suggest to me a scrap dealer, as what is left is not viable to scrap.

Of note, the area was affected by the Dec 2019 Bushfires, and the property clean-up contractors would "helpfully" remove absolutely everything if not told to leave specific items.
