Mystery f15a

Little Jo · #1 11-08-11, 08:16

Hi Guys

I spotted a F15A on the back of a Tilt truck on the freeway outside of Murray Bridge on Highway One heading towards Adelaide. Anyone know whose vehicle it may be, or who it was being delivered to. Nice to see another one in South Australia. Maybe another accross the border raid.

Cheers

Tony

Hi Tony - well spotted. I had to go out this morning and when I returned, look what I found beside the half-track.

Hi Bob

Looks great, nice surprise. I can't wait to see it in the flesh. It looks like "Salesman Bob" has done it again.

Cheers

Hi all - whilst picking up the Blitz I bought Ada a present. When I told her I said that she now had to learn to drive it. You know what her reply was, "if it has wheels I can drive it." Well that blew me away. What next, a blue singlet and tats.

Hi Bob

You must tell me the secret of purchasing. Nice looking tractor, I believe they are very collectable in their own right and a great asset around the property. I look forward to seeing it.

Cheers

Those tractors are a dime a dozen Bob, every fergy owner I know has one

Hi Tony - no secret, just do it.

Robert - who is a little comedian then. But you are right, even I have one now.

Hi all you wet blankets - as stated in the header, I am underwhelmed by the lack of response about saving another Blitz. Never mind I am happy.

Hi Bob,

Maybe they are all jealous!

Anyway, congratulations on saving another Blitz, a Ford no less!

That beautiful flathead is music for the ears. Good luck with the upcoming resto.

Cheers,

Hi Bob

In response to the non comment I wonder if it is because those over the border raiders into South Australia are a bit miffed because you beat them to to it. Anyway mate I look forward to seeing it next time I visit.

Cheers

To put it more correctly this was saved from a border raid.

We were waiting to find out your plans. After the Phoenix Project we are expecting something even more outstanding, so what's it going to be? Blitz/Hovercraft hybrid, Straussler Wheel modification, Amphib.......

Hi Rich - we have been going to Corowa for nearly a decade and have never had a road driveable military vehicle. So this is going to be a bog standard Blitz but in desert livery.

Bob

Bog and desert in the same sentence now I am

Good one Bob another one saved.
