This one was still recoverable but in British Columbia there would not be many wrecks to use as donors

This old truck is located at Mount Mee Forest as I'm sure many of you will recognise, unfortunately the last time we visited it had been torn apart and vandalised :(
oops forgot the pic :D
Looks like an old Britstand drawn grader. The predecessor of the motor grader. Made in Rosebery, Sydney. Still being made into the 1950's and the occasional shire council was still trying it on to trade in one of the pieces of crap in the 1980's. Usually pulled by a farm type tractor. They had an axle and wheels on the rear and an operator stood on a platform and turned hand wheels to raise, lower, and angle the blade.Quote:

Someone did mention that the spare bridge was carried by truck so they must be able to be loaded and unloaded on to a truck by...?

Some very straight panels and even a straight bumper on one.
