G'day folks,
Some more pics. I note that the original military paint has been painted over in a lighter colour. I wonder if the later coat has faded more, due to a different chemical makeup, or whether it just was painted in a lighter colour sometime in its military career.
I note the military six-stud split rims, and imagine that I'm going to have challenges finding replacement 10.50-18 tyres for the front and 7.50-20s for the rear.
The last two pics are after I pumped up the tyres (which are still holding air after six weeks) and moved it to a quieter location, away from interested eyes! The sign had been moved to a replacement vehicle, and all is good!
Cheers,
Matt
