Hi Guys
I spotted a F15A on the back of a Tilt truck on the freeway outside of Murray Bridge on Highway One heading towards Adelaide. Anyone know whose vehicle it may be, or who it was being delivered to. Nice to see another one in South Australia. Maybe another accross the border raid. ![]() ![]() ![]() Cheers Tony ![]()

Hi Tony - well spotted. I had to go out this morning and when I returned, look what I found beside the half-track.

Hi all - whilst picking up the Blitz I bought Ada a present. When I told her I said that she now had to learn to drive it. You know what her reply was, "if it has wheels I can drive it." Well that blew me away. What next, a blue singlet and tats.
Bob

You must tell me the secret of purchasing. Nice looking tractor, I believe they are very collectable in their own right and a great asset around the property. I look forward to seeing it. ![]() Cheers Tony ![]()

Hi all you wet blankets - as stated in the header, I am underwhelmed by the lack of response about saving another Blitz. Never mind I am happy.

In response to the non comment I wonder if it is because those over the border raiders into South Australia are a bit miffed because you beat them to to it. Anyway mate I look forward to seeing it next time I visit. ![]() Cheers Tony ![]()

We were waiting to find out your plans. After the Phoenix Project we are expecting something even more outstanding, so what's it going to be? Blitz/Hovercraft hybrid, Straussler Wheel modification, Amphib.......

Hi Rich - we have been going to Corowa for nearly a decade and have never had a road driveable military vehicle. So this is going to be a bog standard Blitz but in desert livery.
Bob
