LOL, I'm sure there are some members who would like to keep these things on the quiet... but why is it when you have something to sell nobody posts it here?

Must be one of those Murphy's Law things.

Default Items for sale

Hey Keith,

Send me a catalog I still need loads of stuff. Some parts I don't even know I need yet.

What peeves me is when you see something REALLY good, and it's ALWAYS in your part of the world down there. NEVER see whole trucks or the things that can't be posted, up my way. That ambulance body comes to mind, as does the strange chassis & mechanicals from the same seller with the instrument pod.

Whoops...........did I mean to bring that to everyones attention

Oh well, I can't afford the good southern stuff anyway.

Generally speaking, it seems not.
However, as discussed previously, I think this thread can be useful for a "I want... " approach. I have used this thread to notify other MLU'ers that I intend to bid, and, I have not bidded on items on the strength that someone else in this community called 'dibbs'.
Whether or not other people take notice, well...

Now that ebay has suppressed bidders ID it would be difficult to know who was respecting that request or not. Rots of ruck!

I prefered when IDs were visible, but understand the move to change this.

Some time ago I added my ID to the database on another thread on MLU. Useless now.



On another note, I am pleased to see this book advertised. Especially since I finally got one......for $44.00 roughly. Still, if anyone wants one, here's your chance.

It must be late 50's with that Holden red motor. It started life as a C15A I suspect from the single speed gear stick.

At that price it might still be available when the auction finishes.

Default Mb-c1

Bugger me! There are currently SIX seperate MB-C1 manuals for sale on ebay.

Guess that's one thing that could be posted here without causing grief to someones bidding, as there's just soooooooo many ones to choose from.

So many copies, I coundn't be bothered posting the links here. If you can't find at least one copy..............you're probably one of the coppers still chasing Lord Lucan.
