Dugite, the hoist is a WAFTAM. Don't bother.

I've bought a lot of WOFTAM branded gear over the years, big fan of their products.

Also no mention of "unreserved" I wonder what the liquidators set the reserve at?

Thanks Dave, I won't be getting it as I have nowhere to locate it - I just wish I had one of this type of hoist.

WOFTAM - .. waste of etc etc etc ?  :)

It would save using ramps, jacks and axle stands  :) .

Probably as much as they think they are worth ... which is probably more than they really are worth, after having nobs thrash the living daylights out of them and without the Defence service backup.

I don't see the SRV's listed.  Didn't they have two of those?

Cheers,  Daryl.

The vehicles did Bugger all work with awol. 3 of the 4 times that the few that went out was for photo shoots and promo work, not punters. Awol mechanic is a 40yr RAEME WO2, workshop Foreman also RAEME. They were in good hands!

I'm glad to be set straight on that, thanks Dave and many apologies to the mechanic involved.   :-X

All good, mate.
In fact, keep talking them down. I might be in with a chance to get my old mate for $10. ;)

Auction preview page indicates unreserved - $9 starts.

Edit: All vehicles have reserve price. sad face.

Afternoon all,
If anyone here buys an FFR, from the current AWOL fleet, and you do not want the setup that is in the back, please pm me as I'd like to purchase it off you.
Regards

Here's a good'n.   I'm a little confused (nothing new!).
Lot 28.   Description states ... 'forward facing 3rd seat (complied)'     So whoever 'complied' it, doesn't know how to use a pop-riveter after modifying the compliance plate.   AFAIK, modding the plate is illegal, yes?  As well as not having the smarts to use said riveter  ;D .   This mod should have a blue mod plate attached by an engineer?, or might they get away with some form of signed paperwork?
There's other RFSVs there where they haven't even bothered bodging the plate.
Maybe someone can enlighten me on this please.
