Larry hi.
In addition to both motors and gearboxes we also retrieved headlights, doors, steering wheels, instruments and panels, and other small stuff. The chassis on these had been cut, extended and strengthened and when farmers need bits of sheetmetal they cut holes in old trucks.
Time constraints and trailer space limited the amount we could bring back. Nothing else really was worth bringing back over 600kms to Perth. We cetainly are mindful of salvaging as much as possible.
For interest I attach a photo of my C8 as recovered from a farm east of Perth some years ago. It had all the data plates, ARN and Tac signs still visible. Its nowhere near finished yet but the driveline has been restored.
Regards
Murray
