Default Move into shed

Hello Fellow MLU people,

Here are some photos of my two trucks after my latest addition, the Chevrolet Holden, was placed next to my 1935 REO Speed Wagon in the shed. You might be able to tell from some of the photos that I like big chrome grilles and bug-eyed headlights

The engine hoist in front of the Chevrolet has a 3 tonnes capacity and it is just wonderful to use. It has the ability to lift 1.5 tonnes with the boom fully extended. For a shed with a concrete floor it is such a boon to lift heavy stuff around.

Also pictured are some helpers waiting for the engines to go and the trucks to drive somewhere.

Kind Regards
Lionel

Default Isn't it fun!!!

I think there may also been have been a canine conversation to the tune of;

Brother! Does he know what the missus will do to him when she sees these!!

Just as long as he doesnt drag us into it. I'm still in the bad books after what I did to the vege garden!

They might think hiding in the truck is a good place to avoid the flak
Nice trucks especially the reo
