Georges 101 is a battered and very original example, especially the paint work. It was at the other caravan park just out of Corowa, and I did not see it being driven around as he took the oppourtunity to be ferried about in style and comfort (ie By Champ). He did tell me about one modification, the fitting of a Cardan, or double universal joint, to the back of the front tailshaft. Apparently the angle from the transfer case output to the front diff is really too much, and this mod. gives a smoother ride at cruising speed. That is the entire sum of my knowledge, but should see it again next year at Champ Camp 09.
Rich.
