In my search for parts for my own Blitz, I've also come across several Blitzes and other trucks in this part of the world; the trouble is, for most of them i found them too late! There's a Ford Blitz out near Mossgiel that has been sitting there for an age, but according to the bloke whose place it's on, has been sold to a fellow who is "gonna do it up" eventually. The bloke pops out occasionally to make sure it's still there, but doesn't take it away!

There were also several more Blitzes that made their way from the direction of Ivanhoe on the back of Scrappy trucks, some in fairly good nick, and another that was a mere 15km away from me, and I didn't know about it until it too had been sold to the Scrappies!

Down at Willanthry, where i got my Blitz, there's the remains of a Studebaker 6X6 (no wheels, no engine) that had been a firetruck, and a bit further up the road there's a Diamond Reo in not too shabby nick that was also a Willanthry fire engine. So all in all, these trucks are everywhere, but you really do have to look out for them!
