[Phoenix]

Welcome to the forum Bruce 

Still in the M37 club I see!

Congrats on the purchase, the survey units are a nice piece of kit!

[sydneymver]

I will be selling the M37 in a few months, I just don't use it, keep the jeep, look forward to getting my landy.

Cheers

Bruce

there is a nice ffr on greys at mino,it looks like it has been on the rebuild line and they have stoped it,thrown all the bits in the back and sent it to greys.
Looks like it would be a good buy

did any one see what price it went for?

[isuzutoo-eh]

Stephen, it went for over 17 grand by memory, the similar condition one at Darwin went for over 12 grand.

I had put in a couple of bids this round on Darwin vehicles, with the idea that I would take a week off work, fly up and drive back. Nice idea, but didn't win anything.

But tonight, Cyclone Alessia is forecast to hit the Darwin region. Bugger flying into that! Darwin's collection day is Wed, so I hope that people's vehicles are safe that they've paid for, and much more importantly, I hope all the Top End REMLR'ers are safe too.

Good day friends,
I am not sure if this is the correct place for this, Pengelly Truck Sales in Toowoomba are buying Mack tippers at the auctions and sending them to New Guinea.They have already sent one lot and they have another 3 tippers in their yard now. One of the ones in their yard now is just plain olive drab with the old original radial bar treads on, in fact it looks like it has just come out of a museum.
Cheers Ken

I picked up my 110 soft top last Tuesday, from Melbourne, it drove well I was really surprised on the 4 speed manual went a lot better then I thought it would, now its at the mechanics for rwc, all needs to be done is new a new pair of brake disc and a key ignition should get it registered at vicroads next week

There are four 'incomplete and not operational' wrecks.. I thought they werent selling wrecks anymore?

[isuzutoo-eh]

I think these are far too wrecked to be fixed in house...

[stephendavis]

there are lots of wrecks down at north bandiana , lots

[Diana Alan]

I think these are far too wrecked to be fixed in house...

Last time I was down there there were stacks of brand new galvanised chassis, all stock for the BAE Systems re-build line.  However that funding has gone so while the ability to repair still exists the funding doesn't.

I know of about three auto factories that will be available shortly! 

[juddy]

Some of those wrecks, seem like a good buy if only for the spares, but I would not want to pay more than 1500 grand for one....
