Carrier country

Hello Alex,
We removed the engine that was just lying in the carrier and left it in the bush ,you can see it on the crane in one of the shots, I thought it was of no use as I only intended to take the carrier remains, But I will go back and get some pics of it
many thanks for your interest in it, it would be nice to know what we are dealing with, this is what makes our hobby so enjoyable,its always nice not to know all of the answers at least thats what I think.
Regards,
Ron,

Thanks
Ron..
I can't see the crane shot well enough or close enough to ident it...
Probably that engine you left in the bush has the one part on it that some guy in the world would give his left one for and would send you vast sacks of Kugerands for it...
AS a certified hoarder and inherited collector of just about anything shiney or rusty,I know from 35 years of blissful life with my better 3/4 's that if it wasnt for her ability to clean out my "Valuables" every few months,our abode would be unihabitable...
I'm still ticked off at her,when in '73 she"purged" our abode of a Deutz Champagne bucket ,silver with the big Deutz emblem in Green enamal on the side,that I "liberated" in Switzerland back in '69....
