Default Max's new toy

Hearing of Max's car torching plight, Ashley and John have brought in a new, more fireproof toy, a F60L with a No. 13 cab on a No12 chassis.

Although it hasn't run for quite a while, Max says the cab is in excellent condition and tomorrow plans to "give the truck a run, then put it in the tunnel".

Ah the joys of what you can find in this wonderful country.

The Hedges computer has a virus so there won't be any pictures until that's fixed.

Meanwhile the search goes on for the firebombing culprit who has apparently struck for a third time, this one being a fire lit under a 4X4 in a dealer's yard.

Default Nice one!

Looks to be a fairly complete cab too. The ex-Batlow fire brigade truck? Obviously spent a lot of it's life shedded.

Looking forward to seeing you in it at Corowa next year!

Ahh yes, the number is: "RUST"

Is it legible, Max?
