I too thought it was cheap looking at the photo, but after seeing the rest of the pics, it's not so cheap and it's in the middle of nowhere. I love the blocks of wood for the engine mounts. Perhaps a good one for Lynn to take back to NZ as hand luggage

Colin I enquired about it, hence the extra photos.If I was in a position to do something about it, I would.
British carriers seem to be most common in Aussie. Not too many here either. Quite rare around the globe by comparison to Canadian carriers.
How many people in the U.K can put their hands up and say "I own one".
Not very many.
The left side upper plate is a lower hull side plate from another carrier.

Well, (Ahem...)
At first appearance the covers seem to be the bolt-together cab11 fare, (similar to what is in my early #12)
Closer inspection, not really...
Check out the covers on my truck Vs the Gumtree truck remains

See how there isn't a recess at the top of the covers? This is where the instrument cluster mounts on a cab 11 or 12.
