Welcome James
Wish you all the best of luck with your projects
Just a quick warning that these old girls (cmp) are an addiciton
They are a bit like peanuts in the fact it is hard to have just one or even 3

Welcome to the Mad House, James. As others have said, you now have the start of an addiction. There is hardly a person on MLU with only one vehicle. (Is there anyone with only one?)
Please make yourselves known to the KVE members and don't forget the MLU group photo.
•SATURDAY 12.30pm:
All members of MLU Forum (Maple Leaf Up Forum) to meet for a group photo in front of the vehicle display at Corowa Airport.

If you pre-book, even without a vehicle it will be worth your while. You will recieve a discount on the Saturday Dinner, a memento for your vehicle and much, much more.

106 vehicles have entered sofar as at today. Many more too come.
Regards Rick

I didn't know that. I thought you had to have a vehicle. Cool.

We're just down the road at Springhurst, we're on the edge of town so we avoid all the stuff that gets in the papers.
I'll try to post some more photos tonight of the three trucks when we got them and the frame we're working on now.

Thanks for the welcome everyone, we'll probably be at Corowa wandering around in the background somewhere at the airport looking at Blitzes and making lots of "Ahh so thats where that goes" or "what that does" or "we don't have that" comments. We've been pretty lucky in that we've got almost everything from the three trucks, (apart from the seemingly always missing drivers door) and a few odds and ends.
