    My Uncle collected model T Fords years ago and stored them at Mum abd Dads Mum cracked it one day and Dad pushed the lot into a gully with the RD6 Caterpillar All this stuff that got pushed into the gully Dad was buying exarmy Indians and Harleys for next to nothing used them on the farm and they all suffered the same fait Bloody criminal really but Dad couldn't see the value in this stuff Paul

    So Sutton or Kango cobalt bits with Sutton venom cutting fluid Cutting fluid sticks like doo doo's to a blanket, so I can drill upside down and inside out with no dramas Trefolex also works really good as well Or a grinder also works pretty well Paul

    Dunno, my 81 Thermodyne is the same colour Paul

    I found for tough going cobalt bits are the go You can't sharpen them as the cobalt is a coating and once you grind it off the are back to a normal drill bit I can drill hardox steel okay with cobalt bits were as a normal high speed steel drill just goes blunt in a few seconds Paul

    PAI made these and as far as I know still do, as well as all the gears and at least some of the shafts Paul

    I dunno about those brands, I generally go for Sutton which is a Australian brand Paul

    Nope sorry Most times the link bends slowly overtime As long as the bag is fairly pumped with no wrinkles they work okay Paul

    As the others have said, lools great Better than anything I could do, I thought maybe gunna fill the screw holes as this would make it easier to keep looking schmik And I do like the idea of the emblem branded in Paul

    101 is a good run Cities across the world are always in a hurry, I just avoid them if I have to Paul

    Vlad I didn't know you couldn't get Facebook at the moment, I think thats what your saying And like Vlad, I have to many projects on at the moment and Australia and the leftards running the show have made it almost impossible to import trucks into Australia as of July 1st this year But yes that G model does look good Paul

    Bugger me, no good at all I always always always get thongs completely finished to a certain stage before stopping, my memory is not good enough to remember minor things so I have learnt by my own mistakes to finish things to point before stopping Yeah I know that makes no sense at all but I know what I mean lol Paul

    I would think the weights should be pretty close Someone smarter than me will know for sure I would hunt around a bit more for the correct piston I don't really think mixing up parts like this on the rotating assembly is a good idea Just keep on looking for the correct piston is my advice Paul

    Could also measure the front and rear sides as well I feel all four measurements should be the same Paul
  19. mrsmackpaul
    Well that would of added some excitement to the day I wonder if the truck needs a bit of a drive to settle in That been said you could easily run a tape measure at the top of the wheels and at the bottom and the measurements should be equal Paul

    Looks the goods to me I can't imagine anyone having a wooden tilt tray in Australia I doubt a wooden tray has been used on a heavy truck in Australia in the last 20 or 30 years Steel is normal now on everything these days Tray looks really neat and tidy, you've gotta be proud of the result Paul
  21. mrsmackpaul
    They had some impressive gear Paul
  22. mrsmackpaul
    That is a stunning truck, super impressed as is the forman in the photo, thanks for sharing Paul

    Mech, I'm getting concerned about these hairy chested Aussie shelias mentioned earlier Now you mention trans and drag, perhaps Crocodile Dundee was onto it years ago when he checked the tackle before chatting up a bird 🤔 Paul
  24. mrsmackpaul
    Thanks Brocky, I'll do some digging around and see what I can learn Paul
  25. mrsmackpaul
    A different P word came to my mind Joey We've spun this topic off into the ditch Paul
