A J The old hills hoist is good for small bits up to doors as you can give each one a hit as it comes around, one coat at a time, no mess , the grass looks greener too. Mum will never notice, ha ha.

Default new member of the family

The latest member to the family arrived today
Fits right in to the rare and rusty theme
A bit of variety being a Ford fgt no9
With a covert operation with the tilt tray driver managed ( SO FAR ) to slip it in undetected from cranky sentinel

Default Rare and Rusty

Sounds like a good name for a club or perhaps even a documentary.

Did you administer sleeping pills to the Sentinel?

How did you do it???????

No, wait - you can probably sell that secret for a lot of money.

Anyway congratulations on getting her home. I notice the crane has disappeared.

As it turns out it seems that the FGT is not a new sighting to a certain mlu member .All be-it in the 70's
Recognised the old girl whilst looking through Keiths Old Cmp site
Thanks to Keith I now have some pictures of the old girl in it's working history
