Tony's F60L

[Rusty]

1. what kind of timber is used in the 12 cab framework? I would say Oak from what I seen on my 12 cab and dodges

2. what timber is used under the seats & for the rifle butt holders? Oak

3. What stye of sides should be on tony's back? (The truck, that is...) Timber or steel? The Tray is a latter model ie 13 Cab, it looks just like Robs dropside on the Moo Cow Blitz that was at Corowa this year. The Drop sides are steel and real Heavy both sides are one piece units. It may be a couple of weeks away but I should be able to snap some photos for you.

PS does the tray have reqtangular plates welded on above the rear wheel positions? it probally should have wheel arch boxes but most Cockies removed these to increase the useable load area.

Try Australian Hardwoods like spotted gum or iron bark you could also sourse New Guinea rosewood also called merbough that stuff is F22 rated and will not rot for a 100 years in a damp situation and longer when dry
