Default Armour sighting

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I'll put it here to be moved if needed.

This is from a recent thread on AULRO, and I wasn't sure if it was a location/person already known to the maple leaf, carrier and armour boys.

thread is here http://www.aulro.com/afvb/showthread.php?t=37710

and these are the pics.













I presume this is somewhere near Wagga

These photo's are of Ron Fry's gear at Seymour Vic. His farm is called Tank Farm and his daughter, Matilda.

Default Lynx

The Lynx is the postscript in the DVD "Year of the Armoured Car"

To those who have seen it, what do you think of the method of unloading? I'd call it optimistic.

I would call it the Aussie way of doing it ;-) There's a similar method on Year of the Blitz, when Euan and Max unload the non-roadworthy Blitz from the truck. Remember? Ok, it's not driverless, but nearly hits another truck...

I have heard of that collection before. I was going to be surprised if somebody here didn't know of the collection
