Default A little late - but.... hey!

Earlier this year I took the truck down to Batemans Bay for the Anzac Day service & march from the local RSL to the Cenotaph.

Why to Batemans Bay? My grandfather lives there and it has been one of the goals of restoring the truck. Driving him in one of the Anzac Day parades.

I very nearly didnt make it. It was only due to the combined efforts of Max Hedges and Ashley Wilson who helped me with a breakdown the day before. The centre bearing lining on the rear tailshaft collapsed (due to transfer case coming slightly loose). Max helped me dig one up (literally) out of a wreck and Ashley grabbed a tow truck off one of his mates and helped go and get it from Binalong.
