Bren
Dad and i had a great time at Colins today and typical of his hospitality he asked if we would like a spin in his brengun carrier.(we said no but Colin made us
 ) Now Colins driveway is longer than most streets and i could not believe the speed we were going, enough to make the eyes water. So thanks mate for having us and showing your impressive collection of militaria.   P1020016a.jpg P1020018a.jpg P1020021a.jpg P1020022a.jpg

Shane, you were lucky to get a ride in a very unique vehicle. 6901 is Colin's recreation of a 3" mortar carrier. All that were built went to China during WWII and none are known to have survived. We owe a debt of gratitude to Colin for recreating a part of Australia's military history.
Regards Rick

Hi all.
Well this was four hours of fun, it was a mess but Coppers Ale made the time just fly bye.  P1020025a.jpg P1020026a.jpg P1020029a.jpgP1020035a.jpg P1020037a.jpg Keith told me to use petrol to clean and it worked great. Also took it for a drive to Happy Car Wash the owner was not to happy about me cleaning the sump in a car wash but i had just finished.  So happy days for me and the sump.

Hi all.
Well its been a long day but i finally got my tray. A big thanks to Hugh for selling and helping me load the very very heavy bit of kit. Nice to know it was made by Holdens you can see the Holden plant from Hugh's place. If anyone has the correct badge that would have been on the tray please let me know. The current condition needs attention but im going to learn from a man that could fix it in his sleep, its the last thing on the list to do so it will be a long time until you see her restored.On the side of the tray it reads..... COMMONWEALTH DEPT OF IMMIGRATION MIGRANT CENTRE BATHURST 20130929_140431a.jpg 20130929_142634a.jpg 20130929_143332a.jpg 20130929_150256a.jpg The tray was way to heavy for my truck so it went on a car trailer.
