my latest find
Hi Guys,
Thought that I would try to send a pic of the carrier that I have just bought, its an L P 2 Universial one, It was once used as a tree pusher, to push down small trees in drought times for stock to eat the leaves, its a very harsh country where this one is, Notice the small cut out piece of steel at the left hand rear part Ron __________________

Sunshine State Carriers
Good basis to start with Ron, mine was not that complete when I started. I hope you enjoy the next 1000 hours out in the shed...tee hee. If you need any templates, assistance etc let me know as I'm less than an hour up the road . If you wish I have perfect front guards currently removed that would be easy to copy & a rear plate also off easily copied. Let me know if I can assist.

Hi Rob.
Many thanks for your offer of help. I will certainly be glad of any assistance , the machine should be in here in a couple of weeks time, depending on the weather out there, When it gets here I will give you a call and you can slip down here if you like, Ron
