I suggest a thread on longest recovery

[Rusty]

Now others on the 2005 Back to the track trip can vouch for me on this. I believe that I should not name the individual directly because his recovery was slightly illeagal, but I will call him Mr Potato Nuts for more reasons than one.

Mr Potato Nuts found a 6x6 ACCO at Docker River an Aboriginal community in desert country on the Western Australian Northern Teritory Border. He negotiated a purchace price and now owned an ACCO stuck in a Desert.

Mr Potato nuts then hooked up his new ACCO that weighs about 8000KG to the back of his 1965 1700KG Land Rover.
OH yes he was also towing a trailer with about 1 ton of crap on board so the ACCO was A framed on behind that. Forgot to mention he had cracked the right hand chassis rail in 2 just under the engine mount earlier on.

Mr Potato Nuts then proccced about 250KM on a coragated desert road to Ularu. Not black top Bloody 12 inch deep washboards. I will attach a photo of the road being driven on by a NM Mack for your viwinf pleasure.
