Thanks, Tony, I'll say g'day next time. Your progress gives me a bit of .encouragement, to get my beastie going! It fascinates me to see what's really involved, and I've been told not to put a timeframe on anything, restoration-wise!
I wouldn't mind having a chat someday, as you've solved a few queries that I know I'm going to encounter. The canvas work is one; was it done locally? Anyway, thank you again, for letting us have a look at what you've done. Nice to know I have a number of local examples to follow. Cheers, Matt

How spoilt are we around Ganmain?
To be able to jump in the truck to go and watch WW2 aircraft do aerobatic displays, the answer is obvious. Despite the skies the weather, temperature wise, was perfect. A couple of photo's from the day

Looks like a ghost town, but it got busy later on. I was fending kids off mine and Ian Styles vehicles for most of the day and turning off light switches the cheeky buggers had turned on. All good fun
Jeez the planes look good in the air (as well as on the ground)

Interesting to see the F15 and F60L side by side.

Sorry to be digging up such an old thread here guys, just spent the last 2 or so hours (bloody hell time sure does get away from your here on MLU) reading this thread from the start.
Just wondering Tony if the air show you have your truck, along with Max's F15, pictured at is one of the many Temora air shows.? If so, were you planing on going again this year.?

Sorry Beau, I missed your post on this thread.
Answer is my truck is pictured with Max's at his farm, not Temora. Driving Max's truck feels like a go - cart compared to mine. The pictures at Temora are with Ian Styles' vehicles. Lastly, yes I reckon I will go the Aviation Show this year and take the F60L.

Finally, finally, finally...
Got a drivers door on. Interesting note to fold the new skin over the frame I was told to hit it with a block of wood and a hammer. The metal when struck by the wood folds but doesn't leave marks. Lot of late nights in April but the idea was to get it on before Anzac Day. Again, drove it to Batemans Bay to be with my Grandfather in the service.
