Army vehicle disposal

[87County]

And the 6x6 is also described as a 110, so they can't be describing the measurement of the wheelbase. They are talking about the model marketed before the Defender was introduced.


Yes, but also it is a variant of the 110. The 120 was also labelled 110, if my memory is right.

John

.... that's cause they only had the one type of sticker to put across the front :)

You may well be right - or at least it solved the 'problem' of having to agree to a new name and get it approved all up the line!

2stroke on here reckons that driving a Perentie is like driving a Series Landrover:D:D

I thought they rode a tad better due to the coils in the 110 Perentie;)

[RoboDouche]

Yep I drove one the other day thought it was great. Suspension did seem a little firmer. I'll be buying one

[rar110]

I have 130 springs on my Perentie.

The ride is excellent, softer than a 2014 Puma Defender I rode in recently.

The front 130 springs are a little under rated for the heavier Isuzu motor.

[Lotz-A-Landies]

Yes, but also it is a variant of the 110. The 120 was also labelled 110, if my memory is right.

John.... that's cause they only had the one type of sticker to put across the front :)You will also find that the 6x6 perentie is considered a 110 too, as is my Defender 6x6 although on mine the intermediate axle and chassis in front of the spring mount is actually all 110.

[Bearman]

I intend hopefully to get a 6X6 from the current round of auctions and am interested in one in Darwin. Is there anyone in Darwin going for a squizz at the vehicles there?. The one I am interested in is described as incomplete and not operational but all that appears to be wrong with it is the rear axle driveshaft is missing ( well actually half of it is on the tray in one of the pics). They haven't added many pictures so it's a bit hard to ascertain what actually makes it "not operational". It would be great if there was someone who could have a quick look at it for me and see what is actually wrong with it. Thanks

the 130 springs are softer?? I would have thought it was the other way round?? because the 130 is a ute....

Does the army 110 have a higher payload or something????

[4x4 MORE]

Yeah they are like a truck to drive..nothing like todays cars and 4wds!

No refinements what so ever!

[rar110]

I think the rear is stiffer, but front coils are softer.

Is this a conversion to a 110 truck cab?:confused:

The 3.9 Isuzu engine is much heavier than the 2.5 Tdi engines, and requires stiffer springs. The 110 is a Ute, too.

[303gunner]

If you look at the picture, it has a truck cab fitted, so what exactly is your question? :confused:

[Lotz-A-Landies]

130s have a double coil (inner and outer) on the rear.

Re the pic (now three) before this one, yes looks like a Cargo with a Defender truck cab fitted and a locker cut into the side in front of the wheelarch where the battery boxes are in the FFR.

Damn that Kardashian chick for breaking the internet!

[carlschmid2002]

I went and checked out the Townsville vehicles that starts on the 11 Dec today. They are all write offs. Three of the 110s had significant panel damage from roll overs etc and the 4th is a non goer I believe. The 6x6 is in poor shape and the 6 wheel polaris bikes are very damaged. 1/2 trailers look okay though.

What's wrong with the 6X6, it looks ok in the pics with no mention what makes it incomplete and not operational (apart from the missing mirrors).

[carlschmid2002]

I don't know. It didn't look like it was a runner. All of the tray was bundled up in bits. Not sure if it was all there.

[4x4 MORE]

Cheap parts for a lifetime maybe:p..maybe just break it down into bits and put everything in the shed, if you have the room;)

[danialan]

I rang the Grays bloke in Townsville - he was absolutely useless:-

Can you tell me more about the Land Rovers?
The vehicles are incomplete and non operational
That could mean a hole lot of different things. Does the vehicle start and run?
The vehicles are incomplete and non operational.
Can I start the vehicles the vehicle during the inspection?
The vehicles are incomplete and non operational. Most of them have no batteries.
What about the log books?
No log books, the vehicles are incomplete and non operational.

awesome. Could be a bargain or a disaster? I'm really just after the engine and gearbox etc for my Defender. Is it worth a 800km round trip for a look when you can't start and drive them?

[BadCo.]

I would gamble it, what could be wrong with the engine and gearbox? Provided they are actually in the vehicle!

Its called ass covering just in case you don't get what you were after:( keep an eye on this thread I am sure there will be some one who goes and has a look at whats on offer or you can ask if some one local will have a look for you same with all the past auctions no starting or driving:(

[Faceplant]

same with all the past auctions no starting or driving:(

No starting doesn't seem to be enforced consistently across the country ;) bit hard though if as he says there are no batteries.

[Mick_Marsh]

Simples. If you are unhappy about the conditions or information supplied, don't bid.
There are many on ebay and carsales you can start and drive.

[DBT]

Brisbane yard about 6 months ago we started them all and no one seemed to care.

Of course they were outside. And it was raining, so not many staff out in the yard.

At Minto ... Not a chance of starting one. But then the staff there are much more helpful when answering questions.

[danialan]

Simples. If you are unhappy about the conditions or information supplied, don't bid.

Mick that's sound advice. But my beef is that the person who is listed to contact for more details is unwilling to provide any further info. They would have had to move the vehicles for the photo shoot etc. I would think the easiest way for them to have done this would have been to drive them. That would provide some guidance whether they are driveable, rollable or needed a crane etc. Also the Army must have made some sort of assessment on these vehicles before deciding that they are not worth fixing. Why is this a state secret? A simple comment such as - Bent chassis, stuffed gearbox, hydrauliced engine etc would help. And why should the log books not be included?

The auctions are about getting the max price per vehicle for the gov. The extra info would surely increase prices of these non operational/incomplete vehicles. I met a fellow who bought a couple of non operational/incomplete perenties very cheaply, as he had inside info that they had been taken apart for quarantine and all the missing bits were in the back. Surely a simple couple of words such a "running - dismantled for quarantine" would have ensured a much higher price in this example.

[DBT]

It wouldnt surprise me if the Townsville guy genuinely had no idea about the vehicle conditions. Likely just a caretaker of goods.

The sydney guys seem to be dedicated AFM material handlers. Plus presale maintenance is performed there on-site. They are much more clued in to the specs of each vehicle.

As the auctioneers, Grays allegedly put pressure on AFM to disclose as much info as possible in the lot descriptions.

I heard an *unverified rumour* from an *undisclosed source*, that one non-operational 4x4 in a past auction was known to have a seized engine. Grays were going to include that in the lot info, but AFM forbade it. Grays were not happy.

[danialan]

... that one non-operational 4x4 in a past auction was known to have a seized engine.
This is what concerns me.

Does anyone know what the black spray painted intake manifold/thermostat housing means on some of these cars? Seems to have been done insitu as the paint goes someway up the top radiator hoses.

Thanks Alan

[THE BOOGER]

Is it just those parts painted as rebuild engines get the black paint treatment:)

[Barefoot Dave]

Is it just those parts painted as rebuild engines get the black paint treatment:)
EXCEPT most of those in Townsville this round.
Just a cynical jam job to con those not physically inspecting.
Really? in this day and age.......

Most that have had rebuilds have the intake man and fuel/ gas piping sprayed. Only confirmed in the GM120

[Summiitt]

Can anyone tell me how much the unimog made? I put some bids on and then got outbid continuously by an autobid and lost patience with it..cheers

[danialan]

So anyone inspect the vehicles in Townsville and willing to share?

[Bearman]

Anyone know who G.G. from Duranbah NSW is who got the incomplete 6X6 from the Townsville auction today.

[danialan]

... rebuild engines get the black paint treatment:)

Thanks, that is what I suspected.

When the Isuzu is such a strong motor, and can do 500,000 km in trucks under much greater loads, why have so many of the Army ones had rebuilds at such low kays?

Thanks Alan

Thanks, that is what I suspected.

Primarily because the army needs their engines to start first time every time, not just most of the time like your local building contractor requires.

[isuzurover]

Thanks Alan

They may not have been rebuilt exactly. A mate who used to work at repco engine reconditioning in the late 90s and early 00s said they had the contract to rebuild the army 4bd1s. They were removed at set intervals, run up on an engine dyno to see if they were still in spec. If they passed they were sent back and re-installed. If they failed they were rebuilt then run in on a dyno before being sent back. The black paint may just be engines that passed the dyno test.

Got an email today about a new auction soon from frontline machinery

Sent from my GT-P5110 using AULRO mobile app

[Bundalene]

I suppose most Frontline purchasers received the asbestos and polyurethane paint warning stickers along with more paperwork and warnings.


The previous 2 auctions may have been pulled to allow further brake checks and / or to have the appropriate stickers attached. However, I was bidding on items at the Moorebank auction which did not fall into this category.





Erich

[slug_burner]

I doubt there are too many brake linings that weren't weeded out. Just could never be sure about gaskets.

[bob10]

Some information here, Bob


http://afmsafety.com.au/

[67hardtop]

Wow, I got my stickers today. Just gotta find the asbestos in my No.5 trailer now:D. or maybe its the poly paint. Looks like it was painted about 25 yrs ago at least so I don't think there's a problem with it. Have got official ex military sticker now too in case anyone thinks its not an ex military vehicle:p

Cheers Rod:wasntme:

Is there a legal requirement to fix these stickers??

[DeeJay]

If there was, I would put the house on them saying so. Most probably the usual "warning- contains nuts" sign on peanut butter jars tactic

[87County]

Next Minto auction scheduled by graysonline to commence 19Mar15,

Said to incl RFSVs if you like the ones with optional extras

[Blknight.aus]

The pup paint is nasty stuff if you breathe the dust from working it or if you burn it or any of the other things you wouldnt normally do with paint.

and yes there is a legal requirement for the stickers just like there's a legal requirement to print "may contain nuts" or "caution contains nuts" on a jar of peanut paste

Been waiting for Perth to get some auctions with perenties, it never seems to happen, looks like 'I have to go to minto nsw..anyone from WA been there -done that?... fly there-and do an online bid from somewhere...
got to be a better way...I bought Barefoot Daves ebook to help guide me..










only been waiting yrs to get one.....but next auction......well that's my hopes...boy it can be difficult from WA- I wonder if they can be driven across the Nullarbor Plain..with a permit....or they run..ok...just keep trying I suppose......

I think they did have auctions in Perth but they didn't get the expected prices.
Yes, people from WA have bought in Minto. I've read several stories of people flying to Sydney and driving back to WA.
There's also the Melbourne auctions but I think they get higher prices than Sydney.

A permit from Sydney or Melbourne will get you to the SA/WA border. I've known people continue on through to Perth on that same permit (although the info I've found on line says otherwise).

[THE BOOGER]

B52 from Kalgoorlie has been over here several times for both trailers and Perenties. Yes its a long drive home:)

[Barefoot Dave]

G'Day Robbo, thought I would post this reply here and not in a PM for others with questions and situations like yours.

Mate, Go for it!
I am a big fan of the Perentie in all styles. Have owned a Surveillance and a Carryall (wagon). Got an offer on both and passed them on to enthusiasts. Currently have an '85 110 wagon with Isuzu and LT95 box. Not a Perentie, butnear enought to being the same and too good a price to let pass.
Still looking out for another Camo LR.

The Perentie Spec 110 is as near to bullet proof as any factory LR made except an armoured car! No the axles aren't unbreakable, get Maxi drive bits if you need that.
They do NOT need constant maintenance or break down regularly. the few breakages that I have seen were after very heavy use (abuse?). I drove them aroung the Gulf of Carp and Cape york for near on 10 years and never inflicted more damage than bush pin stipes. The most damage I saw was when a numpty hit a washout at speed and tore the Drivers front hub off. He got a smack!
Drive it like a LR, service it with good oils and filters every 10 000ks or 2 years and you will hand the keys over to your grandkids!
There is a good reason that, for a vehicle bought with an intended service life of 10-15 years, that they will still be in the ADF for near 30 years.

There are sales in SA and Vic often. Work out your transport costs and add that to your final budget. There are a few people who have driven their new purchase for days to get home. If you are going to do that, I strongly reccomend that you give it a full service and carry spare belts and pipes. Conduct regular checks during the trip and bring it back to life gently.

A Cargo with winch should set you back about $8500 incl fees from the auction. Then you have transport or travel/ spares costs.
I know that it is expensive to travel, but more expensive to buy a dud. Grays often show the best photos of the worst vehicle. I have seen cars that looked great in photos but in the flesh had full depth rust in the firewall and doors! approx $5000 of repairs needed.
Give my Buyers Guide a good read and take our time buying. If you can't get to the auction, ask a mate or AULRO person if they can get some detail photos for you.
I hope this helps.

to help in NSW...but their phones are not working- cant get them...
but doesnt matter- just keep going...

If you take that email to mean that ALL vehicles have been auctioned, you are wrong. Take a drive down to Gallipoli Barracks, Enoggera and see how many LRs are still there. Plenty more to come yet! :D

Got an Email from Australian Frontline Machinery [info@australianfrontlinemachinery.com.au]

MISSION (ALMOST) ACCOMPLISHED
EX-MILITARY VEHICLE AUCTION ENDS 22 APRIL

LOOKS like I am too late:(
Just this auction. Many more to come yet.

It's about time you got yours. I've got one and am going for my second.
Bid high, bid often.

The public is allowed in? You can't really see much due to the High Fences..:(

[Landybitz]

I thought the last 2 Doublecabs, went for around 27/33K?

[DT-P38]

I'm tipping $40k region.

Bugger... that is about the only variant I could ever come close to justifying for the family.

How hard to make one from a cheaper 6X6 (tray or ambo maybe?) you reckon Mick?

Keep you eye on the ball. You could grab a bargain.
Bidding has stalled.

I'm gearing up for the final run.

There's an RFSV I could pick up for under $7k.
Or a FFR for under $4k.
Or both.

No bids for three days?! Good luck Mick, I hope you score it!

[Barefoot Dave]

G'day all.
I am aware of 2 6x6s that are being converted into dual cabs. Neither are quick projects. I'll do a thread when they are finished with as much info as I am allowed (pricing).

Unless the RFSVis a basket case up close, there is no way it will go for much less than 10k .Sorry to rain on anyones parade.

4x4xmore, take a drive around the back, plenty of places for a peek with all the new extensions.

[Landybitz]

Maybe a single cab 6x6 into a double cab would be a good project for blue Peter!

[Mick_Marsh]

I'm tipping $40k region.
Well, wasn't I wrong. A shade under $25k.
I think I'll be getting the next one.

[350RRC]

A couple of weeks ago there was a single cab 6 x 6 in sth. Geelong for sale for $30k. About 90k kms. I was just having a look at the gal chassis, they even have restraining droop cables on both rear axles.

Just for info........... I don't think its been sold.

Given the latest auction in Melbourne saw the single cab 6x6 sell for $12,209 plus buyers premium and gst, so about 14k all up, you gotta say that is way over priced. Some people are gonna have to take a hit, for paying too much early on.

Andrew, the May auctions may be advertised next week if the past months are anything to go by.:)

Whether or not there will be a WA auction is another matter. :o

Mate, the experience of many is that you wouldn't buy one unless you or someone you trust looks at it very well - the photos don't always reveal the true condition.

Can't afford one at the moment but if they're having one in WA gonna take an early finish and go have a peak especially as it is in Welshpool which is just down the road from us.

Does anyone have experience how the viewing at grays online works...the perentie auction in perth starts the 14th may to the 20th may...Viewing in Perth is on the 19th may,second last day off the auction. yet auction starts on the 14th online..?

is this legal...I thought you can view prior to the auction, but grays auctions said no....this sounds silly...must be some sort of " get you in quick" ?

Robbo:o

[Barefoot Dave]

G'day Robbo. Yes I have experience.
I cannot comment on the legality of forcing prospective buyers to get in quick at the last minute.

[robbo247]

Hi Dave, could Iask your experience please then?



bid early or later?

I believe- bid after viewing?...

but I read somewhere in your eBook to bid early.. is the key to success...prior to viewing....Grays online system only allows a day towards to end of auction-too view...

I'm not certain which way to go..as we all want a descent working perentie..

thanks

Try and get the first bid (or close to) on everything you may be interested in, then, in the final stages of the auction, you are still there.
If you don't do this, after the auction closes, the bidding may continue but only for those who have previously bidded.
For mine, the final hammer fell about 45 minutes after the auction ended.

It seemed an eternity.

I think the way the bidding works has changed since you or I bought ours Mick, it used to be the first bidder gets preference if the highest bid is equal to the first bidder's final bid. Now, I believe it isn't that way-with the first of the two highest bids being given preference, though I haven't looked closely for a while.
I would now suggest you do view the vehicles if you can, and then bid accordingly prior to closing time. Mick is still right in that the bidding can go on for minutes or hours after the posted closing time, if bids are still being made.

I still bid on items. Just haven't won anything of late.

[Lotz-A-Landies]

My understanding is that if there is a bid in the last 10 minutes before the auction closes it will stay open after the scheduled close.

Not aware if it adds another 10 minutes or some other timeframe, but each time there is a bid within 10 minutes it stays open again until there is no bid within 10 minutes. Or that is my understanding.

The result no sniping in the final seconds and bid 11 minutes before the close. ;)

[Disco Muppet]

That's correct lotsa. I think I've seen it that the bidding continues until it is 'resolved'.
Have seen vehicles jump several thousand dollars in that period!

Listed on Grays online as an "Incomplete vehicle"..apparently

Sometimes they have been accident damaged, sometimes they have been dissasembled for cleaning and not reassembled. Sometimes they are salvageable, sometimes they have irrepairable chassis damage and major body damage. Some have been left out in the weather with no bonnet, air cleaner etc. A few forum members have rebuilt incomplete examples though.

[Phil B]

I bought an inoperable/incomplete from Hilton Pollock in Colo for $3k.
It had worked in East Temor and was stripped for cleaning on demob and not put back together.
It needed lots of bits and pieces but the chassis, engine, and drive train are all good. They were replaced not long before it was demobed I think.
Your best bet is to get Bearman's (on AULRO) reference book and check it out completely before buying or bidding.
Bodywork, dash, interior is mostly Landrover and canopies, seat covers and the like can be bought new or second hand.
Hope this helps.

Where did you get all the bits required to finish the Land rover?

[robbo247]

Finally got a Perentie 4x4 RFSV, picked it up today from grays depo perth with car trailer, lost a spotlight canvas cover on Tonkin hwy some where, wind must have blew it off ..bummer...Ill try to look for it 2morrow-dont like my chances..otherwise need to get one made up somewhere.:)

also
# need to re-bolt roof rack on canvas top-need to find those rubber mounts...maybe able industries has them.

# passenger and drivers doors need better fitting-seem all crooked..
...with those low km's, you'd think the doors would be better fitting..

# it reads 3300 klms on odometer from 2010 to 2015 in log service book, wonder what the true km reading was from 1991 to 2010 was...I don't think the odometer is correct, maybe the army resets them for some reason?

great vehicle thou, all in good order so far...cant wait to get it licensed..

also want to get a army no 5 trailers, those one's in grays auction darwin last week sold cheaper, but the freight is around $2000 from darwin to perth quoted :o

thanks
robbo:)

[RoboDouche]

There's an eBay seller in Qld who's selling lots or Perentie parts I got the rubbers for the roof racks from him.

Just search eBay it should come up

Yeah I'd like to know the mystery of the odometers to:confused:

I understand they get replaced during a re-build.

[Barefoot Dave]

G'Day Robbo and Robo.
AS mick states, the Odos get reset at rebuild.....and also when a new odo or cable etc goes in. They are not reset at the correct reading. The Army and Airforce rely on the TGM120 (Service record book) for true Ks covered.

The RFSVs were brought back to Class 1 spec when they were upgraded. effectively as new in all ways except minor panel damage.
Prior to upgrade, it would have had approx 60-80 000ks on it.

Before and after. Took about 9 months. The hardest part to get hold of was the single cab, but that was my choice.
Mechanically mine was sound but as you can see alot was missing from the cab and engine bay.
I eventually found all of it, some new most second hand and refurbished.
I couldn't be happier with her. Power steering and turbo are next, once I win the lotto.
Regards,

[isuzutoo-eh]

As anyone who has a civillian 110 of the 80s has probably found, the trip meter doesn't last as long as the majority of the vehicle. In fact my County's failed before 230,000km, which is when I purchased it.
As well as the rebuilds, I suspect that the majority of speedo/odo/trip gauge replacements occur when the trip meter dies. For my FFR that was at ~92,000km.

Wow your's looks awesome! what paint did you use?

I want to keep mine camo;) I have seen a Build up thread on the Australian Military Facebook site..

It was like yours dismantled..from the pics it Looked like after being stripped down all the parts were just chucked in the back!:eek:

I would imagine all the interior parts and other parts would have got scratched and damaged, heance maybe another reason for the cheaper pricing?:confused:

https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2015/06/199.jpg

[Phil B]

It is flat olive drab acrylic paint over 3 coats of grey primer over 2 coats of etch primer.

Thats correct, alot of the parts that were stripped off for cleaning when it came back from Timor were lost/damaged/missing, which included most of the interior, lights etc
I think that once they were demobilised lots of parts were salvaged/scavenged for other still operational vehicles as well.
Its just a case of what you see is what you get and working from there.
If you do take one on just make sure, as best you can, that the expensive bits are OK (engine/gearbox/TC, axles and chassis). The rest can be replaced fairly easily.
From experience beware of things like air filters and oil caps that are missing (rain water gets into the motor), starter motors missing ($1000 to replace the original and not available), alternator missing (expensive). Don't worry about things like body damage, seats, dash parts, canvas, rims and tyres (Defender ones fit).
Enjoy it. You wont regret it.

robboTry contacting B52 on the REMLR forum, he had the same problem and bought numerous ones in Sydney and trailered them home. I picked them up from Minto and stored them for him. We managed to fit three on the one car trailer by dismantling one.

I know he on-sold a couple of trailers so may still have a spare.

Some pretty cool stuff if anyones looking for parts or complete vehicles.

[Ashleylipus]

Anyone going to the inspection today or next week? Ive just been. A lot of 6x6 on offer and a few atv's but pretty disappointed with the 4x4 range. Only 3 lr's, one hard top that was in decent condition but im sure will go for a lot, one with canvas removed and a lot of klms. The third looked ok. Noticed a leak from the t-case, a rust repair in the drivers side firewall, a lot of silicone and some spray paint over it. Dint in the gbox crossmember and surface rust on all suspension components. Doesn't appear to have been threw the tenix program, a nice example though for sale parked on the street out front. 19,000 klms and selling with trailer. Unfortunately out of my price range but a good spot to advertise a perentie for sale

[Ashleylipus]

The rusty springs, does it indicate salt water use?

I only had a look at one turbo motor. Looked cleaner than the rest but i didn't grab the lot number.
Any ideas why the motors are out of vehicles? Because of age and uneconomical to rebuild or because they are dead??

[87County]

Anyone able to comment on the quality of the 4BD1s and gearboxes?

I have no knowledge the ones that are being sold through AF M

But it has occurred to me that they were pulled out of the vehicles for a reason, it could've been that they weren't working correctly or they were broken or it came out of a writeoff. In any case if it was cheap and you put a rebuild kit through it, if you are lucky it could be a good starting point.

There is only a very limited number being offered at this auction Ashley, it could be better if you hang onto your money and see if there is better offerings in the next couple of months.

Could you please let us know what the asking price was for the Perentie and trailer being offered for sale outside AFM - thanks

Yeah it seems like I will need to wait.
The guy was asking for $18,000 with the trailer. It's registered and i think he said it came with a roadworthy cert.
Hopefully the May auction presents a larger range. I feel as though if there is not much on offer then impulse kicks in and the prices climb higher

[Bearman]

Pig in a poke mate. No way of knowing what condition they are in unless you can see a rod hanging out the side of the block. You could get a good motor or a dud. I know someone who bought a T motor and when he started it it had a knock - new crankshaft needed and the nitrided cranks are very expensive. Bid accordingly! and hope you get a goer.

Good thinking - and thanks for the info 😊

Hi All, the auction at graysonline today, has Isuzu 4BD1 4 Cylinder, 3.9 Litre engines and transmission/box's. I was hoping of trying to get a few spares for the rfsv perenti...but are the engines the same models regardless of the power built in steering for the rfsv?

the body doors and panels parts will be the same, I think rear diffs are different, the front diffs might be the same.
hopefully the engines are in ok condition.

Hi Robbo, The 4x4 engines are all the same except as you note with the PS pump on some, which will have come from RFSV's. Gearboxes are all interchangeable, note the RFSV variant has a lower ratio (and speed) hi range gears but there is no way of telling this box by appearance or serial number - you have to drop the sump and check the gear tooth count to find out. Rear diffs are the same and interchangeable except for disc brakes on the RFSV one. Front diffs are different (stronger housing and CW carrier in the RFSV) but are interchangeable. Unless you can identify that the item is new, you have to assume that it is used (as they describe everything) and probably will have a problem/fault. I have bought a few of the gearboxes and a front axle and every one I have looked at so far (3 boxes and the axle) have needed extensive repairs) so you have to bid accordingly with this in mind and what freight is going to cost to get it to where you live. You may get a good one hopefully!

[Bearman]

There's a fair bit of interest in the Michy tyres. Be interesting to see how much they go for. I think it was mentioned somewhere that they are old stock but can anyone confirm this by the codes on the tyres.

[carlschmid2002]

The Michelins can't be that old as they replaced the Olympic Steeltreks. Maybe they have been in storage for a while but I don't think the have been in service more than 10 years.

Cleaning up a few bookmarks, I found a few 6x6 "possibly low use" vehicles at auction. These may have been up before, and while they may have been refurbed, or had parts swapped out/scavenged for other vehicles etc, the shine of the galvanizing shows they haven't done any work.
