Going back over the thread, I see that a photo of my truck appears on post three with some conjecture as to the owner.
L/L Chev registration number FN575 was mine for over 30 years. We travelled tens of thousands of miles together and among other tasks she hauled untold tons of vintage tin. We were in numerous TV and film productions starting with "The Sullivans" and she is one of the very few vehicles that has taken part in all three of the 'Back to the Track' runs through Central Australia. The last trip we did together was from Istanbul to Normandy with the ANZAC European Tour last year.When that was over we took her to England and attended some military vehicle events culminating in a week at the War and Peace Show in Kent. After that we turned the truck over to her new owner and a week later flew home.
Yes, I miss having her parked out in the shed. It couldn't be otherwise with a vehicle that had been a part of my life for so long and after all the adventures we had together.
