Cheers Andrew great photos mate keep them coming. I have been sent some great items by a young bloke who has helped me out in a big way. I cant thank him enough for his time and advice not to mention parting with rare items needed for my resto.

I have also been given a shift tower and lever by Colin so a big thanks to him. (mate am going to need your help with the spare wheel carrier in the future)

Spent eight hours straight on the gearbox today and the shift tower. All went well cleaned the inside, wire brush work that went on forever and then a lick of paint. I know it should not be black but its a good contrast to the sand colour and makes it more defined. After filling with oil the rear seal sprung a leak so not quite done will have to source one asap.

Hi all.

Another day spent on my cab 12. Got a bit done here and there, got the seats done and gave the compressor a good clean out. I couldn't work out how the oil would get from the gear box to the con rod sump, due to the fact there was so much crap built up inside. However after a while i found it...

Seats came out pretty good i think. And yes i couldn't help myself and sat right down, thought they were the most uncomfortable seats ever made. Never mind if it was good enough for the Australian Army its bloody well good enough for me.

Sent Keith a very poor picture during the week asking if this is the correct fire extinguisher that was used in CMPS. So in these photos i have added two measurements, this will help overseas members and of course us Australians.

Well done Shane - keep at it

You will be suprised with the seats - they are actually pretty good to sit and drive in.

Default Photo's

All I can suggest Shane is keep looking at the thread I have on my beast in the Softskin forum - F60L Recent pics.

Unfortunately I dont really have any more photo's than those Ive posted in that thread.

No worries Tony thanks mate.

Went to my (when i say mine im only a member there) military museum and thought people on the forum would like to see what is in the collection. The land and buildings of the museum are up for sale and we have been given the first opportunity to purchace. However with only one hundred members its hard to come up with a few hundred thousand dollars, so if anyone out there can make a donation or know of persons who can help give me a yell.
