    The army stuff was easy enough to sort out (the one day deadline would have been fine). But getting the thing onto NSW roads has me pulling my hair out, and establishing new regos on trailers isn't new to me!

    there are good tradies and not so good tradies in every organisation, the defence force is no different.........since the apprentice scheme stopped (when Class No. stopped) i recon the standard started to slip

    My bet is there would be plenty of workshop that don't have a nice nut and bolt rack given the amount of modern equipment no having metric

    buyer beware at auctions.......

    The whole trailer debarkle is turning into a nightmare. I wish I never got involved!
    Lucky you weren't asked to restore this piece of ex-army machinery then!!!

    Restorations are different... I've spent my whole life helping with others and completing my own restorations.

    This was meant to be serviceable machinery!
