Clearing sale Lilydale, Vic
 

See the page here.

Lots of interesting bits and pieces, but how do you reconcile this description "1942 blitz Ford 4 cyl 3 ton tray p/c & bows No. C11" with this picture?:

Er yes..
 

Looks like a rough-ish F60L. Maybe it has a Perkins or perhaps 4 stuck valves.

Wonder who it belongs to.

Including 1/4 ton Australian jeep trailers, Mini Mokes, etc. Interesting indeed!

How?
 

The Auctioneer looked in the window, and saw 4 spark plugs?????

G'day guys.
Went there today with a mate and came home with a bunch of stuff we didn't really need but felt compelled to buy. Did anybody else go? I heard Euan's name mentioned in the crowd but wasn't sure of your face.
Jeep trailers went for $200 and $350. Moke's all around the low hundreds I think.
Ford Blitz with a 4cyl diesel went for $450.

F60l
 

Did one of us buy it?

Euan would have been the one towering over everyone else.

Maybe....

Crap, now how do I get it home?

Ok...
 

Why, can't it just be driven? :doh:

Tailshaft isn't fitted. It hasn't been run for 3 years according to the previous owner.
Think I'll tilt tray it back to the farm. I'll be able to hire a guy who did my last Blitz for me. But to lilydale it'll probably cost me what I paid for it.
Does anybody know of a cheaper option?

Who bought this as I thought it was a good buy?

Hi "Blitz",
Welcome and hi, but who are you and were are you from?

I suspect a REMLR import, but i'll wait till blitx can say for himself ;)

By the way blitz, on here people usually have their real names on their posts ;)

G'Day Richard and Euan, yeah have been on the REMR and then AULRO forums for longer than my join date suggests, now with a user name of my 6x6 chassis number. Regards Paul

Also a current VMVC member. Regards Paul.
