Chevy timber crane
Hi Keith,
hope it did'nt rain whilst you were there ! We went 1 year before we emigrated and it p@@ss*d it down all day, did'nt bother me as you dont get wet in show rain, just shopping rain but the family were thankful we retired to the beer tent as we were under cover.... not that i complained ! The pics look great, especially the Chevy timber crane, did you get any other pics of it by any chance, the rear etc ? you can pm me too if thats easier, thanks.  Cheers, Andy

Hi Andy,
This year they were very lucky with the weather. We went down on the Thursday and it was sunshine and a warm breeze, all day. Sorry, that's the only picture I took of the Chevy (apart from the data plates), I know she had some massive ground anchors fitted to the back of her, and a Perkins deisel engine under the hood. The chassis had been repaired and welded up several times around the winch area. I'll ask my lad, Dan if he took any Regards Keith P.S. They had some good beers on in the beer tent, I had a couple of pints of Summer Lightning (5%), which went down very well. Then to my surprize, went shopping with the missus on Friday, and found they sell it in our local Tesco's !, needless to say, I had to buy a few.

Thanks Keith, saw the perkins badge on the front and it seemd to be a populaer conversion on them, appreciate any futher pics.
Yes, always a good pint in there and I think from memory Dr Busker was playing too.Cheers, Andy

Hi Keith,
I found the left view photo on flickr ! Did your lad Dan get any pics of this one ? Have you seen the Wynns heavy haulage one on the rally scene too ?

Wynns Heavy Haulage
Thanks Keith,
I now have pics from the front and both sides .... just none of the elusive rear, guess the ground anchors are similar to the Matador ones. Here is pics of the Wynns which is fitted with a timber crane too http://www.flickr.com/photos/10141102@N08/4720978142/ there is a side view on flickr too but i cant find it again  It has a chariot style rear body made out of steel checkerplate but not visible in this pic
