Hi Hanno,

Yes it is Rob's old LAAT. It will end up a lovely truck.

Must get back to the fishing, before the season ends !!!

Thought it was "open season" all year at the moment, or is Mrs G imposing "catch and return"?
Does 1 x White = 4 x CMPS?

Certainly not 'catch and return', more like 'catch and hide'!

Seasons open for a while longer, I still have the HUP to bring back.

Ah! So, it's the same for you as many other collectors: pray and don't tell.... (even though you gave her a Jeep and named a truck after her )

Hanno, for many years, Sally just saw the loaders come and go. Sometimes with a rusty hulk on top sometimes not and never paid any attention. Then she came on a few trips and started to enjoy the hobby. Next thing she says 'why don't you sell off the vehicles that aren't Canadian and concentrate on the CMPs !!!

Well if that's not a green light.................
