has spent quite a few years under cover (it used to live in a south Aust museum and past 3 yrs in my garage)
no rust
wheel cylinders solid, good brake linings
approx 95% complete needs door tops, wipper blades, new tyres as tyres on vehicle are not great, seats needs covering.

new canvas doors, window flap, rear mud flaps, and window/door curtain bag for behind the seats.
olive green paint job
has the tool box and wheel ramp with spare wheel + 2 new mismatched tyres 1xcrosscut and 1xconventional (looks like olympic steel trecks) both 20"

Dump Truck
 

Hi Phil
If this is the same truck I arranged the sale for, I have buckets of images. I also posted a lot of them onto the forum a while back for someone who was interested in the ram arrangements.

G-day Bob,
Yes it is the same truck, I had all good intentions of doing her up but work got in the way with a couple of 6 month deployments and now being down in Vic for 2 years and it deserves agood home to go to.

If you wouldn't mind posting a few pics it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Phil.

Ohh the joys of army postings...

I dragged my CGT #9 from base to base for 15 years... supose I should be thankfull I did not have the Stuart and LVT4 Buffallo through those years.

Though my FV1600 Humber and Austin champ did get some attention at my last 5 year posting.

Probly 1 reason why I got myself10 acers only 55ks from the base.

Phil... :salute:
