Default One June weekend

Hi all,

Rusty & I got busy & tore down a recently acquired F30. This is to finish my F15A, In around 14 hours (two days) we have the job mostly done.
Armed with nothing more than a few cold chisels and a tractor & some tools, we managed to... well you can see the results.

Points to note are that this truck has a single speed transfer case, it was fairly well modified, but the mechanicals were sound.

Sadly there was one serious casualty. My thumb, which was very badly bruised. Note to self: use a longer cold chisel.

Thanks to Rusty and his efforts. I have had a big adrenaline rush with a short trip in a blitz with no brakes, down a hill, with a mossy windscreen!

Important note: Clean windscreen PRIOR to moving any recovered truck!

Ian
